I really wasn't into the singles charts at all during the 90s, there's number one hits I've never even heard... but I loved this then and love it now. Beautiful.
D’you hear the one about The one you’re now without? Did it make you smile? D’you hear the one about The one you filled with doubt? Was it worth your while? The way you kick a life around Deserving to be undergound What is this? Explain Joke, is it some kind of joke? Joke, I’m laughing, I’m laughing I’m laughing I’m laughing D’you hear the one about The one who fell from space One minute in the stars The next minute lying on their face? She says I don’t know what to be And does she look younger than me? What is this? Explain Joke, is it some kind of joke? Joke, I’m laughing, I’m laughing I’m laughing I’m laughing For a tumble and something to do at night You kick a life around, oh-oh-woh For a fumble with someone you know at sight D’you hear the one about the one you’re now without? She says I don’t know what to be And does she look younger than me? And does my make-up look alright? Can you tell that I’ve been up all night? What is this? Explain Joke, is it some kind of joke? Joke, I’m laughing, I’m laughing What is this? Explain Joke, is it some kind of joke? Joke, I’m laughing, I’m laughing I’m laughing I’m laughing D’ya hear the one about the one you’re now without?
Good song,.good artist! Played a bit of her stuff for my daughter who is keen on getting into music. Hard to find anyone to influence people with from today.
A bittersweet meaning for me at this time. In fantasy, I imagine her singing this to my ex-husband. Sorry...bit personal I know, but...thanks for the video anyway.
Eddi has a wonderful Voice ... yet these words were written (along with many other songs) by Boo Hewerdine who fist performed this song in 1993 with his band The Bible.
I remember this, but I think my sister's CD was a single instead of an album (3 tracks?). Nice little track. Might not have been appropriate, but has there been a live performance?

I heard this on the radio the other day, and I hadn't heard it in years, what a joy to heard it again after all this time, a hidden gem
Quirky, unpredictable, unexpected - and totally wonderful! Eddi is one of the most talented female voices I have ever heard.
Still one of my best top 10 cd's/albums ever - love it!
This was an amazingly well written song performed by a legendary singer ! Classic !
Bought this in '94 with a girlfriend "The one you're now without" brings back soooo many good memories. Can't believe it was soon long ago. :-(
love this song ..... Eddi is amazing
It's like being 14 all over again. I love it. This record never gets old. ^_^
I love this and her she is simply beautiful!
This is the only video I can find that was posted on the day of my birth
Not complaining cool song
Back in 1995, greek radio stations were playing this song...
I know feels like yesterday:D I remember the songs and smile wistfully:D

marverous!
seeing her tomorrow..
there is a beautiful version performed by Boo Hewerdine on his own on an album called "A Live One" should be easy enough to find. Check it out.
stoatyboy boo hewadine wrote this song & the piano at the start just sounds like the Bible
Eddi has a wonderful Voice ... yet these words were written (along with many other songs) by Boo Hewerdine who fist performed this song in 1993 with his band The Bible.
“The Bible” what a great band, Steve Earle produced one of their albums. Seen them twice & Eddi (with Boo) too.
@@buxvan I have followed The Bible from 1985
