Absolutely my favorite Squeeze song. My 2nd favorite is below. Gilson is the only member of Squeeze that actually played on the song.
Quite the guest lead vocal appearance by Paul Carrack.
Technically, Paul was in the band fully, but he stayed for one record & a cup of coffee.
His voice is do smooth & emotive that he can sing pretty much anything.
Sad to hear about Gilson. He was in the band for around 15 years and was on most of their best known songs.
