03. Julian Cope – Umpteenth Unnatural Blues (1986)
„World Shut Your Mouth“ was released as a single in September 1986. The song is Julian Cope’s biggest hit, reaching number 19 in the UK and number 84 in the US, his only single to chart there. Cope said of the success he achieved with the song, „I hated [being a pop star]. I hated the assholes. And I hated the fact … it’s what Smithy [Mark E. Smith] said himself, that all the English bands act like peasants with free milk. All their belligerence went and they turned into forelock-tugging gruelheads as soon as they were around record company types“.
