Just changed my voter registration. Farewell GOP, you were great for a while but now you have lost your way. I'm pleased to now be a registered Democrat.

The Psychedelic Furs recorded this strangely mesmerizing live version of Love My Way at Perkins Palace in Pasadena, US in 1983, for a tv music programme. It has a slower tempo than the album version from Forever Now (1982), yet the timing is very even and Richard Butler is pitch perfect....
