“"New York-Paris-Munich-Lucy St": a wry, ironic reference to a wry, ironic song - the 1979 New Wave hit 'Pop Muzik' by M. The joke is clearly the anti-glamour of City Fun's inner city Mancunian HQ as opposed to the cosmopolitan glitter evoked by the song. Manchester's "hip young menstruals", however, were actually far more globally wired than they might have thought, with comparable DIY scenes around the world at the time.”
