King's Cross (song)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

"King's Cross" is a Pet Shop Boys song taken from their 1987 album Actually.

Although the lyrics appear to refer to the King's Cross fire of November 1987, the album that the song appeared on was released two months before it.

It was suggested that Pet Shop Boys released the single to raise money for charity following the fire[citation needed].
