It's a sweet tune.
First heard this in 87 on a bside,Streets I think.
Loved it then in its more stripped down version,blinding tune.
I remember being in a pub with a few mates at the time as a 19yr old after the Joshua Tree release and we were all discussing this tune that appeared on a single b side wondering why it wasn't on the album.
This was nice video though,glad they re-visited the song.

I loved this song as a B-side since it came out and was happy to see it on the Best Of compilation.
Does anyone know where the Elvis Costello getup came from though??

Endearing
Carriage rides, flowers, puppy dogs, men with long hoses and the backing of friends that clearly love you. The only thing missing was the chocolate. If it were me, I would have gobbled them all up too 'cause therein lies the sweetest thing next to the real...
