XTC - "I'M THE MAN WHO MURDERED LOVE"

I'm the The Man Who Murdered Love - 3:49 rating: ***** stars

I'll readily admit to having totally overlooked XTC's 2000 "Wasp Star: Apple Venus Volume II" collection when it came out.  And I probably would never have discovered it had it not been for an XTC cover band I saw at a local venue.  The group played all of the XTC hits and near misses and out of the blue played this amazing slice of blue-eyed soul.  A month later I still can't get it out of my head.  Never would have thought that Andy Partridge and company could sound so soulful.
