It came up on a random Spotify playlist and I meant to look it up, forgot and now the actual lyrics have gone out of my head, rendering Google useless.

I think it's '90's, britpop era. It's about a young couple living in a basement flat. They have a baby, then she kicks him out because of his drinking. There's something about them kissing on the sofa and life growing inside her (I think).

Does that ring any bells for anyone? I'd be so grateful if it could be identified!

Up the Junction

Up the junction by Squeeze?

🎶 I never thought it would happen, with me and the girl from Clapham….🎶

Earlier than 90s but it fits the bill

I haven't used Spotify for years but isn't there a recently played list? Maybe under "queue" and you scroll up or something?

Interested in this thread?

Squeeze. Cant remember the song title. Not 90s, think it’s mid 80s

Yes, up the Junction by squeeze. Brilliant song!

That's it!! Amazing, thanks so much everyone. I don't know why I didn't recognise Squeeze, This Summer is on constant repeat at the moment.

You're all brilliant!

“Up on the windy common, I took her up the bottom.”

I think it's that night I ain't forgotten, @GCHeretic!

I suppose that that’d be more appropriate for a mainstream pop song.

That was a late 70s song! Great tune!
