Νομίζω ότι όποιος είναι στα τριανταφεύγα - ελληνιστί thirtysomething - δεν υπάρχει περίπτωση να μην αναπολήσει ακούγοντας αυτό το τραγούδι. Ίσως είναι το πλέον εμβληματικό τραγούδι της δεκαετίας του 1990 ή έστω του τέλους της. Λίγο οι Pulp, λίγο το "she came from Greece" λίγο το "απλό καθημερινό" mood, μας έκανε να λατρέψουμε αυτό το τραγούδι.
Ένα τραγούδι που έδενε τέλεια με την ηλικία των (πάνω-κάτω) είκοσι που είχαμε οι περισσότεροι τότε. Μιας και πλησιάζει το σαββατοκύριακο ας το ακούσουμε μπας και ξαναγίνουμε "Common People" ..
You'll never live like common people,
you'll never do what common people do,
you'll never fail like common people,
you'll never watch your life slide out of view,
and dance and drink and screw,
because there's nothing else to do.
Sing along with the common people,
sing along and it might just get you through,
laugh along with the common people,
laugh along even though they're laughing at you,
and the stupid things that you do.
Because you think that poor is cool.
