This single was unique as it had the first non-album B Side and the best song on The Soft Parade album which was not featured on The Soft Parade album. The superb Who Scared You.
US 1969
US Promo 1969
Wishful Sinful is for me Robby's best song just beating Ships w/ Sails from Other Voices.
Who Scared You traces its root to 1967 when part of it was interspersed into The End. It probably goes back further as it appeared in some of Jim's poetry books. Robby has a credit on this song which is a surprise. I can't see him involved with the lyric as it's lyric sounds like pure Morrison but maybe like Jim did to his LMF he shared a line with the Poet.
US Juke Box copy 1969
Canada 1969
It made #44 in the US Charts but in Canada it reached #27 which was a disappointment after the success of Touch Me. Especially as it had a new song not on an LP as its B-Side.
