  • Francia from Caracas, --Such an amazing, super song!
  • Bobby B from North West, United KingdomLive versions better than the album!? Really, joe? To each his own. I found videotape on most of their live performances to be fairly dull, but on record there's an electric atmosphere, like it could explode at any time.

    Lovely sentiment to the lyrics, but I spose some might find it too sentimental.
  • Eren from Ankara, TurkeyMephistopheles (also Mephistophilus, Mephistophilis, Mephostopheles, Mephisto and variants) is a name given to a devil or demon in the Faust legend. (wikipedia)
  • Joe from Dublinalthough most of the live versions - and the scotch mist version - are better than the album version. (brilliant album though too)
