Wired

Wire became progressively less punk (progressing to progressive, if you will) as time went on. Good stuff all along their career, an influence to such People You Know as REM and The Cure. Insert Velvet Underground, influence-beyond-the-sales reference here.

This track seems to have been released as a single in '78 but was available as a bonus track on some reissues of Pink Flag. The lyrics seem to be about avoiding a car crash but are vague enough to allow other interpretations.

Not sure what any of this has to do with whatever Star Trek series this is, though.
