(You) Cant Keep A Good Thing Down
Chris: I've got so many songs that I've written with Lee that have never seen the light of day, and I didn't want these to get lost. In the end, a lot of mine and Thommo's songs ended up on the 'box set' version of the album. So what happened ...

Mike: My wife is from the former Yugoslavia, where they use the phrase "Da" for "yes" So the opening to 'My Girl 2', with everyone shouting "Oui oui, si si, ja ja, da da!" is some chap being very enthusiastic about his girlfriend, so ...

The Wizard

Small World
Chris: I loved 'Small World'. Because it talked about the "magic line" , this overground train-line that connected us all. When we did the book Before We Was We, we realised all these connections that had linked us, like Woody went to the same ...
