"Geraldine" is a 2008 single by Scottish alternative rock band Glasvegas. It was released on June 23, 2008 and reached #16 on the UK singles chart, and #1 on the NME chart 2 weeks later. According to the NME website:

This song seems to hold much truth as Geraldine really has given up her job as a social worker to sell Glasvegas merchandise at concerts. [ [http://www.nme.com/blog/index.php?blog=10&p=3625&more=1&c=1&tb=1&pb=1 NME.com Blog: The Real Geraldine] ]
