Best song ever written and this is its best version. Scandalously, it's not on the Tiffanys soundtrack album, you have to get it on a pricey Music from the Films of Audrey Hepburn CD. Curiously, it always feels close by when we're playing the Olympia in Dublin, which is where I must first have heard the song in their Pantomime in the winter of, I guess, 1961/2, where it would have been performed by Patricia Cahill as the Principal Boy (Aladdin, I seem to remember). Strange the things that stay with you: I know exactly which part of the stage she sang it from, a position I now know to be slightly downstage of Spider!

Did you guys ever give a thought of possibly covering it at a show? Even if no one sings it just musically?
