Liked it at first..goes on a bit though. Agree with this. The song that got me into Quo in the first place when I heard it on the radio when it first came out. However, it now bores me after the first 30 seconds as it is so repetitive. Do agree too that on occasion, when played loud it still hits the spot. Sadly, utterly dire live in the current set list though. |

Always a great song, standout on the radio when it came out. I wasn't even a participating fan at the time, but I bought this one on one hearing.
Difficult to play live because it loses its energy if the rhythm is NOT spot on.

Also sold more only kept of number 1 by Barbra Streisand, who had the second biggest selling single of the year. However WYP is not really remembered by anyone but fans of the band. |

Love WYP and always have even if the lyrics are bit dodgy I've always liked it too, maybe because it was my first Quo single. Agree about the lyrics, although they're not the dodgiest; what is runny nosin'?  A side effect when you are on the Lauda.... |
