What version of The Boy With The X-Ray Eyes did you prefer? The album version or one of the ones released in the single? Personally my favourite is the 7" version where I think Arthur Baker added extra drums to it.

On the whole, I prefer the 7" mix because it's faster. But I do like the album version's intro more.

For me the 7" version just about beats the album version.

Album version for me I'm afraid. Single version was a little too OTT IMO.

Album version.... it's more of a song as it's 2 minutes longer.... has a neat prog style Babylon Zoo chant in the middle.... and I prefer Jas fading out the song
