Music Monday: I'll Sail this Ship Alone

The Beautiful South were from Hull and proud, but seemingly for the video of their 1989 song 'I'll Sail this Ship Alone' they were compelled to head for the Beautiful South London locales of the Rivoli Ballroom and Lewisham Shopping Centre (and indeed Brighton seafront).

Lewisham Shopping Centre 1989 - sadly no sign of the Lost Figures of Lewisham,
but check out that Pelican bin
Sorry only copy of the video I could find is poor quality and out of sync, but you get the picture
