I remember buying the 7" Single of this and could not believe it didn't chart ??!!-I may not be Hugh's biggest fan as a bloke,,but-fair play,this is an excellent song !!
Hugh solo is fantastic...You have to listen to all his stuff many times,like it is with every great music...Well,old stranglers stuff maybe better,but,for me,Hugh solo is better then the stranglers without him...do not come up with Buzz Warne :-)He is just a copy,take THAT in mind!!!
I used to have the 12" and I recall that hugh is not playing the lead in this only the acoustic, I checked and as follows: Acoustic Guitar - Hugh Cornwell Drums - Pete Phipps Engineer - Steve McLaughlin* Guitar [Electric] - Nigel Bennett Keyboards - Nick Plytas Producer, Mixed By - Howard Gray Vocals - Hugh Cornwell

Does anyone have the shorter 7" Version of this song as a vinyl rip? I'd love to hear it? Is it very different to this extended remix?

Love this song.
In my opinion this was his best solo song. As always, never got the recognition it deserved.

I have this 12inch. Truly a lost gem of a song . . .with the right promotion I think it could have been huge.
