Nobody's Side - Elaine Paige - Chess

For many of us 1980s children, the musical Chess was a part of our musical vernacular. Now, most of the drama club kids were Phantom freaks, but I was a Chess guy.
Geopolitical romance.
And while "One Night in Bangkok" was the big hit from Chess, my favorite was always, always Elaine Paige singing "Nobody's Side."
Ah - I'd never actually seen the video for that (or, indeed, the musical live, which is sad). Great song. Personally, I've always enjoyed "Pity the Child" as well, although there are lots of great tracks to choose from.
"Pity the Child" is one of my 2 or 3 favorites from Chess ...
