Jeez, what a good song 😎…

The intro starts off like a lighter take on the "I Ran" intro before the song kicks off proper as a stomping Synth jam!

Their career worst song.

It's a shame that the original 1989 version of "Magic" wasn't recorded a few years earlier for the Dream Come True album. A largely forgettable effort which would have benefitted from a song of this quality.

Take your time for book changing before rearranging Don't you know that it's cold in here It's been a long time since I've heard from you there Let me tell you about the place I live Four walls and a wooden fence I get a letter from you every week You want to tell me it's a recommence When you're committed there's a hole in the wall Committed And I'm bustling it all Committed There's a hole in your head Committed Makes me wish I was dead Every day I walk in the field I see the grass and the trees so real I look up at the sky so blue I wonder why I never hear from you Well I'm committed There's a whole in the wall Committed And I'm bustling it all Committed There's a hole in your head Makes me wish I was dead Every day I exercise In a yard with a big high wall There's a man with a nice green coat He gets his pencils and he makes a note And I'm committed There's a hole in the wall Committed And I'm bustling it all Committed Like a hole in your head Committed Makes me wish I was dead Committed Committed Committed Committed Committed Committed

Makes me think about aerobics.

The descending guitar line during the chorus is immaculate Plus I love the guitar feedback at 4:32, makes the ending perfect!

What a great song! 💕

this song is amazingly brilliant and dark. never get tired of this one. Paul nails it again with his epic guitar solo. always a pleasure to see him getting totally loose.

Excellent guitar work.

40 years on it stills sound good. One of the 80s tracks that really stands the test of time.

Terrific bassline on this one.
