Commentary: I first heard this on a mix by Jeff Mangum, and then checked out the Yazoo album from the library. The song is so catchy. Another one of those where I wish I spoke the language (Jamaican Creole) to sing along. I went exploring Mento music after hearing this track. It was fun (and the A-side to this 10" is pretty similar), but the comparative quality of this selection speaks to the excellence of curation by Yazoo.
