Deep &Meaningless is the second album by English folk singer-songwriter duo John Otway and Wild Willy Barrett. [2] It was released in 1978. [3] The album included the song "Beware Of The Flowers ('Cos I'm Sure They're Going To Get You Yeah)",which was voted Britain's seventh most popular song lyric in a 1999 BBC online poll. [4] The song's strong showing—ahead of The Moody Blues' "Nights in White Satin" and Hoagy Carmichael's "Stardust"—was the result of what Otway's website described as a "well orchestrated campaign" by fans. [5]
AllMusic rates the album as a "triumph" and gives it 4 1/2 out of 5 stars. [1]
