Indeed, it’d sound nice played in a set with destination eschaton

They should've played it on the Electric Tour, would've worked well.

Sounds great yeas, to our ears but it's really b-side material. The lyrics are about themselves in a mocking way and sonically it's not really a crowd pleaser. Turning this into a single was career damaging.

Turning this into a single was career damaging.

In what way damaging? The final single from the Very campaign that had started over a year before.

i really liked this song,

the remixes were good, and very frantic.

glad to have a 4th single from the album.
and it did get released in the US, which sometimes
does not happen (like 'being boring').

Its b-sides are the best of the Very era.

Liberation was the bad single. One and One would have been infinitely better. Yesterday was my favorite of them all.

5th single, technically

Euroby, Some Speculation, Jam&Spoon remix = ACE!
If love were all, Can you forgive her? (Swing version) = Not so good

Coconut 1! Hot eurodance fire.

I love this mix. Possibly in my top 10.

thankfully. I never thought that song was single material - and the remixes done for it didn't help the song out any better.

Some of the lines are really good, but the ego-lyrics about their tour are pure b-side material.
The following isn't that bad:
"Darling, you were wonderful, you really were quite good
I enjoyed it, though, of course, no one understood
a word of what was going on, they didn't have a clue
They couldn't understand your sense of humour like I do'

You're much too kind
I smiled with murder on my mind

'You have a certain quality which really is unique
Expressionless, such irony, although your voice is weak

You hated me too
but not as much as I hated you"

But the chorus and the rest of the verses should've been relegated to obscure b-side. If I were Neil I would've prepared a word sallad about pop vs rock and how Yesterday, when I was mad is a rock lyric.
