Sometimes you manage to surprise me, positively - I absolutely love that song and I thought it was so fantastic, that we finally had the song as a whole on Aquostic and - even better - on the Roundhouse live recording. It's an absolutely fantastic live song and I'll never forgive them should it be taken out of the new acoustic set in favour of one of the hits !!

It works well after the heaviness of Someones Learning, not all that keen on the two snippets through the album but it was something different from Quo to do that.

If written or sung by Lennon, Gallagher or Dylan it would be talked about as genius and a classic piece of simple music. It's a fantastic song...

Somehow it has always felt to me like it was just another snippet, albeit the longest one. For me it's the Roundhouse version that is how the song should be (and I could've sworn it's longer .. )

If ever a song summed up Francis's attitude, its this one. And he's never really changed. Its the rest of us that have A piece of real class from a classic album.

Agree those lyrics are quite prophetic when you think about it ! I love the Rossi lazy style of singing on songs like this as well. And he is one of the originals who sung rhyme in his own accent which always adds to the charm.
