No probs. Wish I could tell you which album it was originally on. Marr and Morrissey were fantastic with their songs.

That's the sign of an excellent album, that it still sounds fresh and exciting. The Cure had their moments, the superb guitar work on In Between Days for example, but Depeche Mode were the most dull, boring bunch ever, in my opinion (which only counts with me, before anyone starts). XTC were, in contrast, competely under-rated.
Oh, and talking about stuff that sounds fresh, just enjoy the crisp, clear production work on Costello's Watching The Detectives. Close your eyes and you could be in the studio.
As for REM, they can do jolly as well (Shiny Happy People, The Sidewinder Sleeps Tonight, Stand). Sometimes, the Americans do quirky better than we can (Talking Heads, B52s, They Might Be Giants, Crash Test Dummies).

The Chili Peppers ARE a cut above the rest. EXCELLENT live, and I would recommend 'Californication' to anyone who 'isn't too sure' about them with 'By The Way' as a close second.
