It was considered as a single I presume because there is a video for it. But they plumped for an edited version of Living On An Island having discarded Runaway as well. Or the record company did. Fools! A gem. A true classic taking a pop at the music press who had no idea. I recall one review of the album where the misguided hack thought it was about Alan's ex-wife. I don't even know if he had an ex-wife! Had it been a single, it would have been a hit. And therefore it would have been in the set. (sigh)

Would have been a right belter live.

They were there, gear was set-up, so why not. Same with the "Heat" promos; Again And Again Let Me Fly Someone Show Me Home Long Legged Linda (not released or used except a small snippet on German TV "apparently") All shot at the same time in the same studio. The only one with a different setting was Accident Prone
