But the say about 'millions of people swarming like flies around waterloo underground'

Liverpool has no underground!

[Elton Dong]

My apologies I stand corrected. It was about 15 years ago I was last there and didn't recall it! Also there was never any mention of it on Brookside or Bread!

I cant understand this! City of culture 'Liverpool' they must have been on drugs stuck a pin in a map, and missed Manchester completely!

Erm, it's not quite true that Ray Davies wrote Waterloo Sunset about a place called Waterloo in Liverpool (if there is one - I've only been there once). His first idea for the title was indeed Liverpool Sunset, the song intended as a paen to the passing of Merseybeat.

Then he thought "Sod, it, I'll write about my city!"

My younger daughter, when she was about 9, asked me if people who come from Liverpool are called Liverpublicans.
