Can't believe the wonders of youtube - only just discovering - and can't believe you have this - I was at this - I think I went to practically all of his London gigs. You can hear me laughing on the vinyl of this at the Little Boy that Santa Clause Forgot. I went up to Billy's shop in Scotland as a teen to meet him - he wasn't there of course, but his little brother was! I eventually got to meet him outside Radio One - I still find it very hard to listen to him..... miss him .....
@Pixrandall. I saw myself at the Reading festival watching The Pogues original lineup, followed by New Model Army. Craziest, most murderous gig I ever went to.
Youtube is just fantastic, and thanks to everyone who posts this kind of thing on the site.
once again a fantastic performance by a massively underrated and misunderstood singer.I have been looking for these performances for years.Thanks for posting.Does anyone know where the stv documentary has gone? I never got a chance to watch it.

Piano. Cello. Violin. Beautiful Voice.
Strange, how easy it is to forget that such perfect music can exist within this simplicity.
Let's turn the electricity off.

We need at least enough electricity to be able to enjoy this song. ;-)
