Classic Squeeze. If one song encapsulates 1981 for me it is this. Whether it's Paul or Glenn taking the lead vocal it still sounds great. Tempted by the fruit of another. Who hasn't been?

  • The only Squeeze song sang by Paul Carrack. This video shows Glenn Tillbrook singing it. Thanks for posting.

  • Paul also sang lead on "Loving You Tonight" from the album "Some Fantastic Place". It was released as a single here in the UK but I'm not sure whether it was in the US.

  • Elvis costello sang backing vocals on the original version, also produced it i think?

  • Yes. Elvis had a big influence on the East Side Story album. It was his suggestion that Paul should take lead vocal which gave this song a different feel to the original take.

  • Tempted by the fruit of anether

    Tempred but the truth is disceverd

    lol at his pronounciation

  • luvin the funky groove...Maroon 5 should def cover this song

  • they just did a 45 minute set in bryant park in nyc on april 28 for a show called "artist's den". part of it is on the internet.

  • I like Squeeze..But this is Pauls' song..Period!

  • does anyone notce how fast it is?

    thumbs up for this

  • Way too fast a tempo for this song which Tillbrook finally gets to sing lead on, though it's 'owned' by Paul Carrack. It sounds like a 45rpm being played at 78rpm speed!!

  • Brings back a few memories of seeing Squeeze live many, many times......at places like the Shepherds Bush Empire and Glenn and Chris were/are amazing live performers.........YouTube clips don't project their brilliance.

    This clip looks to be from around 1989, I remember seeing a show they recorded at Newcastle on VH1 or something and the set and clothes bring back flashes of that.....wow 21 years ago...

    Where does the time go?

  • SOUNDS LIKE SOMETHING I SQUEEZED OUT AND FLUSHED DOWN THE TOILET. SLOW THE DAM TEMPO DOWN!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Oh no, where's paul..
