This is a tribute to James Honeyman-Scott, the Pretenders guitarist who died of a drug overdose in 1982 at age 26. Scott's death was followed by bass player Pete Farndon's 10 months later. Farndon had been kicked out of the band because of his drug problems and died of an overdose.God I love this song from the first time I saw video in the 80s and still rocks ◕ ‿ ◕

Growing up in the 80s I must have heard this song a million times. I always liked it, but never really listened to the lyrics. Until now. What a beautiful, poignant song.

She always sounds great !!

Great song. Awesome lyrics. I so miss incredible music like this from the 80's. I miss my sweetie from the 80's even more. I found a picture of you that hijacks my world often to a place in the past where circumstances were beyond our control and cost me your love. I miss you terribly my dear, sweet adorable girl. I am also still in love with you and always have been.

Sounds great played acoustically also. Great song overall. I so miss great music like this from the 80's. I also miss my sweetie from the 80's even more.

Bob Emrich

Out of all the live performances of this song on youtube, the slower pace and the blend of strings and acoustical guitars make this the most beautiful. The band was very tight that night, Thank you Chrissie and Adam and all for making this version such a valuable collector's gem.

and sounds so fresh all that times....:)

If the original rockin version is outstanding , his semi unglugged take ie even more indredible. and definitive. PURE magic and emotion.. James and Pete surely smile up above.

Magnus Sturesson

Nice rendition, but this song requires forever Billy Bremner on guitar.

Jon Edenvale

Songs like Kid , Lovers of today and Back OTCG are pure pop gold of guitars and melodies.

I saw a picture of you...those were the happiest days of my life.. Thank you Chrissy for carrying so many of us thru our own pain with this song. I was playing "The singles" today and thought about the title.. my god they were/are ALL hit singles.! The reason we're here is to love each other...we fall but we keep gettin up over and over and over"!!!! Thanx love
