Partridge or not It doesn't really matter who penned this. It's a really airy, breezy, fun song...with some meaning behind it. I love this song and nobody needs to be negative about its content. js

Possibly my favorite XTC track and really underrated. Partridge is just a brilliant songwriter.

The 80's sucked music and fashion wise except for a few. Xtc being an exception. In America, nobody knew these guys existed! You had to b an 80s hipster to know if them.

Lennon/Mac of the 80'a. True.

I got lucky and saw these guys open for the Police in 1980 in a college gym. In 1982 XTC's lead singer and song writer Andy Partridge suffered a nervous breakdown on stage in Paris and never toured again. His stage fright was extreme, he was dependent on Valium, and his wife threw them away before the performance...precipitating an anxiety attack leading to a breakdown.

A beautifully constructed song, flavours of "We can work it out" in the middle eight. Nice.

I work at RaceTrac and we play this song at our stores. I hadn't heard it before then, but the song is so nostalgic.

When I searched for the title song I got a green day cover and another one by pierce something, anyways I'm glad I found this one. It gives off a better mood than the other two <33

What an awesome song! I think I've just found a new group I could really get into. There's so many layers to this sound.
