Ive always been quite staggered at the contents of the William It Was Really Nothing single, to have Please Please Please and How Soon Is Now as b-sides is unbelievable. The A-Side aint half bad either...

My choice too, well said. That one record was a lot better than most bands' full albums.
 
William, It Was Really Nothing b/w Please Please Please Let Me Get What I Want and How Soon is Now?

All are great songs.
