I loooove Del Amitri. Justin's voice is always brilliant. And they have friggin awesome chemistry with each other. 💞 I'm flying from Australia to Scotland in 2 days to see them in December. They're the only band I would cross the world to see. I've never been overseas and I only hope they've got all the snakes off the plane.

[@silverlinings3946]

I started to read your comment and it's so strange. One of my followers on twitter also did the same, but last week - following Del Amitri to Ireland then to Glasgow from Australia. I remember the song, but in the 90s I was busy surviving and didn't remember the band's name. Had to look them up, and came across your comment. There must be more fans in Australia if I've now seen two in a short time who follow them.

[@tomdobson7733]

I can't believe 256 people dislike this song.....it's Class....seen Del Amitri live and they are awesome.

[@hackapump]

It's probably because the narrator in the lyrics 'fessed up to cheating on the girl, and her being the last to know. To me that's the beautiful twist of the story, the thing that makes the lyrics stand out, and it is reflected in the instrumentation too - they bring it down to the somber there. But some people get their knickers in a twist very fast. Not that there's anything beautiful about the breaking of a heart, but singing about it can be - processing it in any way really. Without it, there would be little art left, me thinks.

[@eightiesmusic1984]

The lyrics are superb but very sad in their reflections on a failed love, regret about loss and that revelatory twist at the end- has to be one of the cleverest lines in pop. Not so sure about the middle eight where the song seems to lose its way a little but it's a small point compared to the rest of it. There it is again-the twist just as I type this!
