  1. SMOKING BAN IN BRITAIN and IRELAND Ene Eisenberg-Lindqvist

  2. DorianLynskey, The Guardian • The 1st time I heard A Day in the Life, the thing that surprised me most wasn’t the radical structure of George Martin’s orchestration. It was Paul McCartney’s line about smoking on the bus. It seemed so improbably distant. Just like old adverts in which doctors recommend light cigarettes to mothers-to-be, lyrics sometimes provide that jolt.

  3. Songs ABOUT smoking • Simon & Garfunkel * America (“We smoked the last one an hour ago”); • Pet Shop Boys * So Hard ( “We’ve both given up smoking so whose matches are those?”); • David Bowie * Rock’n’Roll Suicide (“Time takes a cigarette, puts it in your mouth”)
