Shane MacGowan towered over all my other heroes. I've got so many things to say about him, so I think I'll say them all. I discovered The Pogues as a 14-year-old. I was trapped in a weird school run by a religious cult and I hated existence. But the moment I started listening to The Pogues, and the moment I saw what Shane looked like, my life was transformed forever.
