AllMusic[2]

Untouched Takeaway is an album by British singer-songwriter Nick Lowe.[3][4] A live recording produced by Lowe and Neil Brockbank, it was released in 2004 by Yep Roc Records. The name is from the song "Lately I've Let Things Slide" from Lowe's album The Convincer:

"That untouched takeaway
I brought home the other day
Has quite a lot to say
The evidence is clear
On every side
Piled high and wide
About how lately I've let things slide"
