Like the rest of their material, it was released in the US under the name "The English Beat". It reached #39 on the ''Billboard'' 200 album chart in 1983 on the strength of two singles, "I Confess" and "Save It for Later," the videos for which received modest airplay on the fledgling MTV video network. An instrumental version of the song "Rotating Head" had previously been released as the b-side of the single, "Jeanette", under the title, "March of the Swivelheads". It was used in the conclusion of the film ''Ferris Bueller's Day Off'' in 1986. The aircraft which the band appears to be debarking on the cover is a Vickers VC10, a British designed four-engined jet. ==Save It For Later== "Save It For Later" was covered by Pete Townshend, who played it live from 1985〔http://marcoonthebass.blogspot.co.uk/2009/04/save-it-for-later-story-behind-pete.html〕 and recorded it for ''White City: A Novel'' (1985), though the recording was not released until 2006. Townshend and David Gilmour had trouble figuring out the song's guitar tuning of DADAAD.〔(Dave Wakeling on Pete Townshend ) (KBZT FM 94/9, April 1st 2006)〕 Pearl Jam, in their live concerts, often uses the song as a improvisational tag to their songs "Daughter" and "Better Man". American rock band Harvey Danger covered the song for the soundtrack to the film ''200 Cigarettes''. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Special Beat Service」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
