Great song from the Army album... Excellent vocals, drum playing and the structure in general is brilliant
Think it was dedicated to someone from Quo's crew? at the time who'd died

Just checked and yes it is Mark Raymond. It only states it on the back of the Vinyl (I think), unless it's in the CD sleeve

Wasnt sure about it when I first had the album but its a real grower for me. One of the best tracks on the album (but that's not high praise! It's better than that sounds)

It's a song from the mid 80:s....rather good coming from that era.

Great vocal, great drumming, great chorus.
The emotion in the vocal is outstanding. Always been one of my favourite tracks

Not my favourite but one of the good songs from the album. Also the only one where I can actually hear Rhino adding something creative...

If anyone else other than rick had sang this song then it would've probably sounded shite, but ricks voice makes this song.
His voice was very powerful during the 80,s and early 90's and made a lot of shite songs actually sound quite good.

Always thought Rollin' home b-side "Lonely" was the best of the'86 b-sides, and I was optimistic of a decent comeback album. However, it weren't on there and unfortunately the "Army" only really sold cos the name was back so a big chunk of the long-term fans were happy, but if the "Army" single had flopped, the album wouldn't have done nearly 6 months on the chart, (can't believe Dreamin' kept the numbers ticking over!)
