About the song[]
Aside from the version on the "Careless Memories" single, no other studio versions are known to have been recorded.
There is a live arrangement that features a slightly faster tempo and extended ending with an aggressive guitar solo, which interpolates the sitar part from the original studio version. This live version was performed in 1981 and has appeared on numerous unofficial recordings, noteably the Live at Hammersmith Odeon and Live at Odeon LPs, as well as the Perfect Days: Now and Then CD.
