(Remastered) and Special Beat Service (Remastered). <br />I recently went back and listened to everything Google Play has of the English Beat and "Which Side of the Bed?" and "End of the Party" both really stood out to me. Both very emotional -<br /> almost haunting - they stick with me for days whenever I listen to them. Interestingly, I find myself humming General Public's "Never You Done That" after listening to "End of the Party."<br />I would like to get the lyrics to Cool Entertainer - the toasting is a bit tough to understand in parts - but didn't find them anywhere on the web.<br />WesAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1134969481939975509.post-36313282623927503632012-02-20T11:21:51.535-05:002012-02-20T11:21:51.535-05:00Where's a guy to find Whcih side of the bed in...Where's a guy to find Whcih side of the bed in mp3, any ideas?

Is there somewhere that lists the rarities and unreleased songs from that era? I know Dave Wakeling said there wasn't much out there on his bords, but I know there are bound to be some rare songs. Hit me up on Twitter and we can share what we have.

When the beat first started they did a session for Radio 2 (at the time a MOR flip to the pop of Radio1 on the BBC) I can't remember the other songs they did or how many, I would suspect 4 but one was a magnificent version of 'Night & Day' done very much in a crooning style ala 'Can't Get Used to Losing You' but the vocals by Dave W were absolutely superb. A friend of mine (Gerry Murphy from the band Work Party) recorded it. Incidentally I found myself getting Work Party their second ever gig at Dindwalls in Camden Town supporting Curtis Mayfield!!! They did offer me the job of manager but I was about to leave London.<BR/>regardsAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1134969481939975509.post-15235780150837919422008-10-21T23:54:00.000-04:002008-10-21T23:54:00.000-04:00awesome!! thank you as always.awesome!! thank you as always.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1134969481939975509.post-14569913260597005082008-10-20T16:06:00.000-04:002008-10-20T16:06:00.000-04:00Excellent message !!!!thanksKEEP UP !!!Excellent message !!!!<BR/>thanks<BR/>KEEP UP !!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
