  1. Nice, 'Always' is a bit meh but the 3 are good. Is this a fold over sleeve with the lyrics on the back or are the lyrics on a separate insert?

  2. You'll often see the 45 with the one sided lyric/info sheet but it's hard to find with the (very thin) one sided sleeve. I've found "Mr Nice Guy" has grown on me over the years

  3. So the sleeve is one sided, that'll explain why I've never seen the back shown anywhere. I favoured 'Mr Nice Guy' too.
