Couldn't have hoped for a better choice for a single, best track of the album in my opinion.

Love the song and i think it's a great choice for a single, hopefully it will get played on the radio a bit more and he can get top 10.

What's the song got to do with it? Surely we've already got a recording of the song. I'll be buying the singles for the artwork and the bsides...

Quite right there, Tim! If the b-sides are as good as the ones on TNWTTAL then I'll be very happy!

Also, that artwork is class!

No, there isn't. And strangely that's the only one not to have an image attached to it in the album sleeve. I'd like to see Emigre as the next single - I love the little birdy!

I don't know why so many hate it so much, it's a lovely tribute to a, by all accounts, lovely man. What amazes me is that it is the first such tribute, I bet Nicky really, really wishes he'd written it.
