What song makes you feel like you're part of something bigger?
I'm not sure there's a song that presently makes me feel part of something bigger. But when I cast my mind back to the nineties, I can think of a few, one in particular, where a Union Jack–emblazoned guitar used in a live performance on Top of the Pops symbolised something hopeful and defiant. It made me proud to be British—part of something exciting happening in that time and place. Compared with how I see that emblem used nowadays, and by whom, I can't help but feel disappointed by what we've become.
