Dundee
Ed's hometown Dundee appears in a couple of songs:
On Magdalen Green is set in an old park beside the River Tay, while Ode to the Kingsway laments the loss of a double-roundabout on the UK's oldest ring-road. The "Kingsway song" has become famous in Dundee via word of mouth and local media. (bit.ly/Kingsway)
