I didn't discover XTC until Nvnsvch. Then, I went backwards and found this vast library of treasures there waiting for me. I love this whole album. I love to play this in the morning, especially on my day off. It's its' own little world.
Andy Partridge is phenomenal. IMO, this is the album to have if you could only have 1 XTC album. I requested this song on WFNX when I lived in Boston in the mid '80s. After it played, the DJ thanked me on air for introducing her to her new favorite song.
Amazing band , great track -brief ,but intergral part of a mix tape made for a Paris bound girlfriend that was to be listened to at when her flight had reached it's cruising altitude-turned her into a XTC bot hee hee...
love this song makes me happy

Women come and go. the friends I had who were into this as much as I was still remain. And, joy of joys my sons love them too. Must be genetic.

@SleepyTymeT Oh yes. You can feel something new nearly every time you listen again many of their gems. Here, I love the acoustic guitar!
