The special edition of The truck driver and his mate? How do we tell?

Not a single, but:
Searching for the face of Jesus about Elvis.

The thread is about singles.
I sincerely *love* Disco 2 and listen to it straight through regularly.

Well, I don't know.
The single is the starting point but we can reason and wander around it, can't we?
People have been talking already about Agenda and you actually mentioned Jack the Lad and The resurrectionist, and they are b sides as well.
My comment also origins in the notion of a song being about somebody in particular, like you said Jack the Lad.

Anyways, I feel like is not necessary playing the thread police actually.

I've been coming to this board since 1996(ish) and lurked for the vast majority of that time.

If I've only learnt one thing during nigh on 30 years, it's if you stray even slightly off topic my god you'll know about it 😁
