Ok, it's stat time. This was the Pogues' biggest UK hit that wasn't a collaboration. Probably one of my desert island discs, love everything about this song...

A peach of a tune!
Did the single have live tracks featuring Joe on the b-side.
Yes, I think it did.

Yep really enjoyed this, thanks for sharing.
There's probably scope for a thread for great songs that the recognised lead singer doesn't sing on.

My mate had a theory that the best bands always had a backing vocalist who was better than the main vocalist.
