Sunday Morning

Leon

Woody: I'd written a song that was a bit Kings Of Leon-ish, rough, straight, lots of guitar. It sounded fucking great. I played it to Nick, because I needed a melody and some lyrics. He said, "All I've got is a chorus: 'I feel like running out ...

Time For Tea

Blackbird

Girl Why Don’t You?

Suggs: 28 years ago? There was a stall in Berwick St. market, in London's Soho, that sold 45s and had a great selection of Blue Beat records - I would buy as many as I could afford and rush home to play them. The ten second crackle of static ...

In The Hall Of The Mountain King

Instrumental

Dangerman AKA High Wire

Cathal: Take a piece of thread, pass it thru the eye of a needle and wash it in purple sand. Stitch a circle of gold silk to a blue mohair jacket and whisper three times beneath a full moon the incantation... love is the answer... all will be ...

Promises Promises

It Must Be Love

Deceives the Eye

(Don’t Let Them) Catch You Crying

Nutty Theme

We didn’t want to be ‘ska’ but to have our own sound,” says Suggs. Both he and Chris say that the “Steptoe & Son” theme was at the front of their minds here, too, along with “Billy Bentley,” a Kilburn & the High Roads song.

Brand New Beat

Lola

Lee: 20 years after its release, Chris & myself wrote our inspired version, 'Mistress, Mistress' - it sounded fab but, as agent 1 would say, 'this song is available absolutely nowhere!' Lola obviously had an unearthly effect on myself as ...

Black and Blue

Mike: I wrote 'Black and Blue' about breaking up with my missus, Sandra. We'd been married for a very long time. That song was about the breakup, and the relief, in some ways, when you've been stuck in the negative spiral that some ...
