The key notions of the band are still there; hate, heart and the human condition.
This single, perhaps one of the most shining examples of pop nous they have
produced, is a giant slab of misanthropy disguised as a rollicking pastiche
of The Beatles' 'All You Need Is Love'. Outwardly, its
bright orchestral and shiny, whilst at the same time hiding a heart which is
dark, sombre and murky. In order to confuse things more, the single also contains
a cover of ELO's irrepressibly jaunty 'Mr Blue Sky' fashioned
in an inimitably Delgados style. Queasy times round the Delgados' way: Same
as ever then.
