Awesome song! This was one of a pile of 45's that circulated my group of friends (I'm still not sure who owned which!) that we all taped and passed on to the next person...old fashioned file sharing :)
I had the 7" which was a union jack printed copy, watching it go round and listening to the mod grooves are happy memories. "I want you more than I can stand" is great lyric in the song. Also it is short and to the point, almost reminds of William by the smiths.
My mate had a lambretta 175cc I think it went like a rocket he bought it new back then 300 quid I was a motorbike fan and never felt safe on these lol
