Uma das minhas favoritas do XTC. Apesar de não curtir muito a fase inicial dos caras.

they are a grand band, but they're under-rated b/c they didn't tour. Too bad, but check AP's record label (APE) lots of good up-n-comers

32 years later, and this track is still just as crisp and fresh! (Not that I was around to hear it when it was new, mind you, but I think it sounds far less dated than many of the big hit-makers of 1978).

XTC - one of the most under-rated bands in British music history. Fantastic songs and lyrics.

I'd say it sounds like a cross between "This Year's Model" and Joe Jackson. Everyone was doing the dub/reggae backbeat thing then, but the Police weren't quite as jerky in their execution.

AP says at the beginning "You can pop your acid Spangle in there now, were going to do a Rita Coolidge number.." Spangles were a popular UK sweet/candy in 60's and 70's, one of the flavours being 'Acid Drop'.
