This song almost makes me cry every single time I hear it. I think it's something to do with Guy's delivery of certain lines. It's just heart-breaking.

"Send up a prayer in my name!!!" (was that one of the lines??) There is no band like this band! Artistic, Articulate, Ambitious, Emotional, Lonely.......etc. etc.

Should listen to the Live at Abbey Road version - that line is absolutely epic.

Sazzrah, ditto-ditto-ditto - I got the CD of that whole performance, which comes with the DVD, and was utterly blown away. Stunning.
