This is an AMAZING performance.
I love this performance because it really showcases Nick's bass work. Superb!
I’m pretty much a punk, rockabilly and honky tonk guy but it’s hard to beat a perfect pop song. It’s gets into your head and refuses to vacate.
the harmonies on this live track is so amazing!
Nice blast from the past...
Great song, Great Band
Simple yet brilliant pop songs liks this last forever.
yep!..GREAT SONGWRITING!!
Nice and clean song, a very good live performance.

Jim Capaldi did a song with the same title, not so cheerful. Appreciated it though.
