St. Christopher were a very stereotypical Sarah Records band. Hailing from York, they first surfaced in the late 80s and went on to release a surprising number of records, initially on Sarah and later on a variety of other indie labels. This song was the biggest 'hit' they ever had, perfectly encapsulating the jangly sense of frustration that so many bands around that time tried to get across. It never really settles properly - there is something about it that makes it sound almost eerie, and that sets it apart from the rest of the stuff Sarah put out, which can get a bit samey if you listen to too much of it in one go.
