If you're a fan of Jon Ronson's book The Men Who Stare At Goats, you'll no doubt have read about the CIA's covert plan to break terror suspects by playing repetitive and annoying songs to them on a non stop basis.

Well, it's time for Dubya's boys to load another tune on their iPod as there's no other use I can think of for such a stupefyingly piss-poor ballad as this. This is certain to have them spilling the beans within a matter of minutes.

Andrea Corr, who gets away with this nonsense because she's apparently quite fit, compares her heart to a wheel, a sinking ship and then a normal non-sinking ship within the first couple of lines alone. She continues to sing these inane similes until this slow plodding dirge finally finishes. It's truly painful. Watch out, Osama - we're coming for you!
