John Hopkin was John Hatpin?

A long time ago on AFCA, John tossed up a question about a song with two
chords and two words, and I managed to answer it. Not exactly funereal, but
I'd imagine he'd rather be remembered with something like this than with a
dirge:

Maybe if he was a little nicer and a bit more chill his heart would have held out a bit longer

I am here so very rarely, and to do so and see this just breaks my
heart.

I'm very belatedly so sorry to hear this. John was a good 'un.

Spent many a wasted evening on AFCA in the 90's and 00's. John Hatpin was the epitome of the group's ideal, if in a British way.
I will raise a glass to him.
Sad to hear he is no more , but he still exists in our collective memory.
