This was the first version, and obviously has inspired to Pale Saints to make their own version. I really like both versions, and it is impossible (and somewhat ridiculous) to compare both versions. They were from different periods, and have their own charm each one. Pale Saints make a dreamy atmospheric and more richly arranged version, while Nancy's version has some spacey cosmic vibe, very typical from the mid 70s.

I played this NEW on the air in 1976. It should have made a "hit", but the lyrics were too blue. I have the 45 STILL,and have never seen a "Stock" Copy with "She Played Piano and He Beat The Drums" on the "B" Side. I loved this record,and as PD, I could play what I wanted. Some listeners were outraged!! GREAT SONG,especially by Nancy.

The gorgeously dreamy Pale Saints version was the first one I heard, strangely enough, which then made me want to investigate the original. Didn't realise it was more uptempo either, but it has its own vintage charm. Very 70s, but then what else did I expect?

@mauvezonemagick Just think, you'll never have to hear this version again...hopefully you read TheOrlonita's comment, that says everyhting.

@TheOrlonita : They don't digress that much from this version, though the Pale Saint's version is a bit trippier.
