When I got to the bottem floor I went to turn left. My phone rang/intro to this song, & at the same time, Robert Deniro came walking by & gave me a weird look as if to say, "what's that noise coming out of your coat pocket ??!!"

    I was fortunate enough to see them perform this song live on their "Meat Is Murder" tour in NYC, which I believe was in 1985 or 1986. Marr said they rarely played this song live because of the multiple guitar lines which required another guitarist to sound right.
