Very crazy looking singer, Alex Chilton.
The song is considered one of the shortest recordings in pop music and became a million-seller.

Great song. Was thinking of posting the Joe Cocker version from the Mad Dogs and Englishmen tour.

I don't tend to be drawn to the happy-clappy, saccharine nonsense of most love songs. For some reason it's the existential angst & misery of loves lost, spurned or unrequited which seems to resonate with me. What an old goth pal of mine used to call 'slash-wrists music'. :)

Something for a chilled out Sunday evening although there is a fair helping of angst mixed in to this modern dance classic. Performed this time in a Jazz style with some very nice DB playing.
