Lol, even if everybody made up their own version, I would still bet that Fran's will be better! :) |

It's so exciting to have Fran interact with us like this. Feels like we kinda get to take part in the progress of making the album :) In my own biased though still perfectly valid opinion I think the song is great! When a song makes me think about my life, and in this case my friends and loved ones, then I would say it's a good song. I hope we'll get to hear how the music to this will be like someday.
Actually I think I'm off to make my own melody to this and see what I can come up with :P
I completely agree - an 'in touch' kind of feeling. Wondering about the tune now. |

As soon as I read Fran's intro to the song I knew exactly which relationship in my life it was about. It was many years ago but the lyrics brought all those feelings back. For me, it was a close friendship that also involved unrequited love from my end. Nevermind though. That guy's an alcoholic now and I'm married to the best person I've ever known!  |

Travisish is good enough for me! Kinda hard to pronounce though! :P |

I love Extras, but the Christmas episode was such a downer. It was still good but after the episode ended I felt like going, "Wah Wah Wahhhhhhhh."
BTW: Has anyone seen the episode where Ian McKellen is talking to Ricky Gervais' character a role he's going to be in a play. And he tells him that his lover is going be a guy named Fran. And Ricky Gervais' charcter goes, "Fran... Fran..." And Ian McKellen goes is something the matter? And Ricky goes, "... Fran Healy, you know, lead singer of Travis."
That moment made my life, for real.
Really?!??! I've never heard of this show. Going to look it up now...
Fran, thanks so much for the blogs! I'm so excited to hear the new song! Those of you who have come up with a melody should post it up on YouTube so later we can all see how close you were to the actual song! :D Pretty please!

The only times I've made up anything, I've forgotten it almost immediately, so you're doing well! |

aaawww that is happening to me!
now my friend is happy and busy with other things,
so he is not around anymore
=(
Fran read my mind
He's the best
Me too!! I haven't seen my best friend for a long time!!

Can't wait to hear it with the music, and Fran's voice! |
