The Manics Encyclopaedia: Yourself

YOURSELF

DISCOGRAPHY: Gold Against The Soul

LYRICS: Nicky Wire and Richey James

MUSIC: James Dean Bradfield and Sean Moore

QUOTES: "It's about being dissatisfied with yourself. We humans are the only animals who are burdened with the knowledge that we're going to die. So every day you look in the bathroom mirror and try to convince yourself that you look OK, so you can carry on with your daily routine, when actually you know that you're a flabby piece of shit. It's really difficult to keep feeling good about yourself when you keep seeing all these perfect, airbrushed images in magazines."
