    The Streets first album Original Pirate Material shows a block of flats on the front cover. Those flats are on City Road in North London. I know this because I used to live in the pub in the bottom left hand corner of the photo.

    I seem to remember a video made by one of those typical guy singing with another guy with a guitar type bands that I noticed solely because it was shot on a DLR platform at what looked like Canary Wharf station, although it's been a long time since I've been out that way...I haven't been able to find it in a web search, so maybe I'm making it up.
