"Pyjamarama" is a song by English rock band
In 1977, it was re-released as a single, together with "Virginia Plain", to promote their Greatest Hits album, and reached number 11. However the 1977 release was a different mix with less sax treatments on it and the closing guitar refrain edited differently from the original Island 7" version.[3] The original version (along with "The Pride and the Pain") was re-released on the box set The Thrill of It All, while the 1977 version can be found on the Street Life: 20 Great Hits compilation. In 2012, both mixes were included in the ten-disc boxed set The Complete Studio Recordings 1972-1982 on the bonus compilation Singles, B-sides and Alternative Mixes.
A live version appears on Viva! Roxy Music.
