Notes
Second single released from Tales From Turnpike House

"Sometimes I write songs with friends outside the band never quite knowing what will become of them. Solo album? Etienne album? Elevator music? This song was written with Mark Waterfield and Lawrence Oakley (who makes the best coffee south of the river) in Lawrence's flat opposite Tooting Bec Lido. I always really liked the bassline, it seemed to get lost on Tales from Turnpike House. The theme of the song is basically "why did you dump me, you fool?"" Sarah Cracknell, 2007.
