Song History
This song debuted on the '99 Dave and Tim tour as a solemn number to become the second-most played encore song for that tour. It was finally reworked in the Lillywhite Studio sessions to contain more instrumental parts for the full band. During the live roadtesting of the Summer 2000 tour, Carter added a nice "phone ring" sound.
