Loudly. It’s fair to say England has an impressive history when it comes to pop music and its myriad styles. Indeed, from the British Invasion to Britpop and beyond, English artists have often led the field – and some of the most singular have relished the chance to write songs about their native land and English society’s many wonderful quirks and eccentricities.
