    Lovely. The singing blend is super. The only thing I missed a little was the bass, whose heavy plodding beat was such an atmospheric element in the original. It's there, but doesn't stick out in the mix as it might.

      Totally agree. I noticed it pretty soon, too... along with the wonderful overall quality here and with such a superb song.
      I bought their first album way back when, and even though I was (still am) a guitarist, I alway played "air bass" to this one.

    In Edinburgh the “corner” was the Binns clock at the west end. A favourite meetings place for first dates. On the hour and half hour were the main times. By quarter past and quarter to those stood up would then hook up anyway. Probably all urban myth. Those were the days.
