Pop at it's finest. Love it! So much going on, yet so simple.

Funny, it reminds me of Then She Appeared by XTC. Odd that the song titles go together.

apparently, this song is about shooting heroin. the lyrics bear it out. "There she blows again, Pulsing through my veins." either way, a wonderful hooky tune. it'll be in my head all day.

Love it. Just a great little pop song, filled with honey and light. Sappy, perhaps, but I refuse to channel my snarky cynical side when I can smile and bop my head, at least sometimes. And good memories too. A sweet confection.

I think they used Sixpence, etc. version in a TV ad for birth control pills (Ortho Tri Cyclen?) as well.  It was a sort of funny suggestion: "There she goes again, better get her some birth control pills". 
So much better to hear this version; great song.
 
At least it wasn't an ad for a bidet.

Edit:  Ahh, I see.  The single was released in '88.  Album didn't roll out until '90.  Carry on.
