Remember Fran saying that Writing To Reach You was partly inspired by this (I think anyways!)

Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong!

Oh yeah! Fran mentions it on that great Man Who podcast. A combination of that song and "Wonderwall."
Thanks for finding it. I never knew what song he was talking about. I like it...I can sorta see how he might have got the idea for the vocal pattern in "WTRY" from this track. Although "WTRY" is a million time better. ;) |

| Thanks! I've been trying to look for that song ever since I listened to the Xfm podcast. If I remember correctly, Fran couldn't even remember the name of the band (teeheehee). That's a nice song, but of course Writing to Reach You is epic. |

| Interesting fact... 74-75 is the song that got me my first ever gig. I did it at an audition and got the slot :) |
