That was way before MTV, wasn't it? I didn't realize that they made music videos that far back. What was that, 1968? It's one of the greatest songs of all time. Burt's long musical lines have always astounded me. It reminds me of when I saw Elvis Costello on Conan O'Brien when he said about working with Burt, "Now I see how it's (songwriting) really done."
