"Misery"

I listened to the first disc of On Air - Live at the BBC, Volume 2 yester-day and noticed a small thing about "Misery" (which is also present in the studio version).  "More" in the line "I won't see her no more" is sung with a melisma (A C).  Because it's sung to more than one pitch, there's something of a sense of the word's meaning (although it's negated).
