The recent Spectacle taping w/Ron Sexsmith, finally offers us a rendition which highlights the sad irony woven into not only the lyric, but also the melody and song structure. It was always there, but Ron found its quivering heart and EC caught onto it about 12 years ago when he sang it in duets with Steve Nieve.
This version has always been my favorite. It's fucking night and day. It's the only reason I love the song, honestly. Thank fuck for that Rykodisc reissue!
Thanks for the video! Did you know that Squeeze, from the same genre as Elvis, is touring North American in the Summer of 2007 and then UK later in 2007? Tickets for his North American dates are available on the Ticketmaster website.
