Of course, the Flowers version is my favorite - maybe the best song ever.. Unfortunately, there are no links to this gem. Just roundabout versions.

Love this song - great, surly attitude - I like the "London Years" version best.

The Flowers version is the earlier faded out Aftermath version.

The unedited AFTERMATH (UK) version rules; FLOWERS is just an edit of that (@ 2" shorter).

I prefer the UK version too myself for this song and for the album. But that's just me ...

To Cotchford Farm, out by the pool...

What a drag it is they couldn't revive him"

as a teen in the 80's i remember hearing the long version on the radio and thinking it was some unreleased version. i stated in another thread that i preffer the u.s. version of aftermath but think the longer version of the song should of been released either on flowers or more hot rocks
