Oh the good anarchist She believed in everyone So the good anarchist Put her faith in her favourite band So a good anarchist Booked a ticket, took a plane To find out that her love Had gone mentally insane So the good anarchist He didn't know right from wrong All he knew was his beer His old guitar and songs And they took him away Time and time again So the whole world it knows He's gone mentally insane...again

In times of trouble Who do I turn to? You've always been there for me You've always been there for me After all this time All the bad things I said and did You're still here She's always been there for me She's always been there for me She's always been there for me You've always been there for me You've always been there for me

about

We all miss Dan Treacy and TV PERSONALITIES. After all the years of amazing songs and magnificent albums, we have waited almost a decade to hear the unmistakable voice of Dan again. Luckily they have put out two new albums: “My Dark Places” (2006) and “Are we Nearly There Yet?” (2007) which were supposedly the beginning of a new era, after the experience Dan had crossing the desert.

On behalf of Elefant Records, we are proud and excited to put out the world exclusive new single of TV PERSONALITIES “The Good Anarchist.” One truly cries out in jubilation when listening to this song! Only true alchemists of pop can achieve to produce sounds of such sensibility in just a little over two minutes. Echoes of bands such as VELVET UNDERGROUND, SHOP ASSISTANTS and CAROUSEL ring about on this single, as well as the voice of Swede Johanna Lundström for the first time and Dan playing the guitar. The B-Side sparkles with the fabulous “She’s Always Been There for Me” with the classic TV PERSONALITIES (basically Dan and Ed Ball) although it includes an irresistible touch of Northern Soul and a catchy rhythm that makes you put on your dancing shoes and leave your Ben Sherman shirt soaking in sweat! It’s all a big surprise wrapped up in a 7” single and a definite must for long-time fans of the group, as well as newbies which became fans with their last few albums!
