As Murphy puts it simply: “This is such a sad song. Honest and beautiful, with such gorgeous playing.”

Murphy remarks: “This is my favourite track, always makes me and everyone else dance when I play it. Energy, positivity, arrogance, youth… I’ve always loved early Fleetwood Mac before Peter Green left. I love his guitar playing and his voice.”

“When I heard all the fuss about the Strokes, I wasn’t convinced but when I actually listened to Is This It back in 2002 [a year late to the party] I knew they were the real thing,” Murphy remarks.

Murphy says: “A potential funeral song this one! From amazing Blue Lines album. Again, it never gets old. And manages to ask that ‘what is it all about question’ but make it original. Fantastic vocal by Horace Andy. Play it loud in the church…”

“One of the most romantic songs ever written in my opinion,” Murphy explained.

The ethereal magnitude is something Murphy dips into almost daily: “Kind of predictable, I guess. But I need to listen to this tune quite regularly just to remind me of the potential and purity of music.”

“For a pure burst of energy, sunshine and melody you can’t go wrong with this Stevie tune from Signed Sealed and Delivered,” Murphy eulogised. “Again, arranged produced and played by Stevie. Listen to the drums. Amazing.”

As Murphy explained: “A nice counterpoint to ‘Maybe I’m Amazed’. Also, from his own first post-Beatles album. The lyrics are exceptionally bold and brave, heartbreaking and hopeful. And the vocal is so raw. ‘God is a concept by which we measure our pain’.”

Murphy explained: “So McCartney wrote and played everything on this on his first solo album [McCartney] after the Beatles break up. One of his rockier love songs which I much prefer. Amazing guitar solo too. Pretty much a perfect song.”

Murphy told Two Paddocks: “I think they managed to bottle rock n’ roll in this. It has never failed to stir a little bit of rebellion in me every time I listen to it. Even in my advancing years.”
