I love it - one of the stronger songs on the album, even if I'm normally something of a critic of Wire's singing.

I've never managed to listen to it all the way through. Just too bloody awful.

Hated it first time I heard it, love it now.... although "gorgeous" isn't the word I'd use to describe how much I like it. It ain't exactly a work of beauty, it's just enjoyable.

It's one of my favourites form the album.
I just wish he would stop using 4 instead of "for" in song titles. Is he 13?

It's one of the few songs on the album that I'd be frantically Googling the lyrics if I heard it on the radio to find out who it was by.

Nicky's vocal isn't his best imo. Love the trumpet, guitar and female vocals on it though!

Never thought I'd like Wire singing but this actually works

I don't mind it too much, the bit at the end is good (more the backing singers than anything), but it's my least favourite track on the album. I'd rather they kept Nicky vocals to B-sides.
