@shnabors Thanks, this is quite an obscure song to cover I guess but I would listen to this over and over again when I first got the album in 79. It's so hypnotic! (not so hypnotic without the drums but hey)
Thanks, it's always difficult when the version you are used to hearing is not the one on youtube. You should try and search out Elvis Costello doing this version it's great!
:-) HaHa, I know what you mean it is funny how such a simple thing as 4 snare hits can stick in your brain and become the most important part of the song!! I used to listen to this song over and over as a teenager and would always hit in time to the snare beats.
Thanks, I really appreciate the positive comment. I can't take any credit for the re-interpretation though, as it is pretty much exactly the same as Costello's original demo version (including the added verse that got cut from the album version!)
Wow, I don't normally listen to covers, but this is outstanding. Cheers from an old EC fan.

Excellent job! I love this version sans drums, though I admit that version sticks like a tick.

Ha, thanks, There is no doubting the version from the album just makes you go tap, tap, tap, tap! There is no way to stop yourself :-)
ps sorry for the late reply, just been too busy to even logon to youtube!

Fantastic job. I usually hate covers of the favorite songs of my youth but this was awesome. Great version of this song. Thanks.

By far the best reinterpretation of a Costello song I've seen on youtube, and from a fellow lefty! fantastic, really. :)
