I doubt that this is a Blues-rock or pop rock song . I'm not sure but I think it's just rock. - User:Omegangel 11 August 2012 (UTC) —Preceding undated comment added 02:23, 11 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

M25???

Even though the journalist states the song is about the M25 there is nothing by the artist or in the lyrics to substantiate that. Is that no just an unqualifiedopion??? 92.40.253.178 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 14:45, 19 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

True, the citation is not substantive on being specifically about the M25. But the article does say "...about the frustrations" of the M25 peak hour. So while not directly about the motorway as a subject, there was inspiration for the song there, according to the journalist. --HuggaBounce (talk) 12:22, 17 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

IIRC, when the single came out in 1989 Rea said in an interview that it was about the frustrations of driving on the M25 London Orbital ring road.
