Tim. Same here. It always packs the floor when I play it but i’ve seen it regularly on eBay for a fiver and it never sells.

Another underrated M and Vs song: "I promise to wait my love". the 45 version is better than the LP recording, but the only video on youtube is pretty crappy!

Dylan Posted January 4, 2018 Posted January 4, 2018 Big favourite for me bottom and co "gotta find a true love"
