If there were no singles, does "first video" count? If so, then:The Sundays: "Joy" (Reading Writing and Arithmetic)Pale Saints: "Time Thief" (The Comforts of Madness)

It reminds me of "Sunset People" thematically and effectually from the end of Bad Girls in that it just sort of wanders off into the night and there anything can happen.

All I can think of is "California Rhinoplasty" from Matmos' A Chance to Cut is a Chance to Cure.

I came THIS close to offering Dexys' Too-Rye-Ay, but "Come On Eileen" wasn't actually its first UK single, and more shockingly, I find that it wasn't even the last track on some copies!?! *brain melts*

Interesting. Is "Sour Times" not the most popular Portishead song in the UK, though? In the US, if you know nothing else by Portishead, you know that song.

The sleeve was done before the song was written & recorded.
