This is the very first song we wrote as a band, way back in the October holidays of 2008. I feel that it is our simplest song but I guess that makes it accessible from the very first listen and it seems to have become a fan favourite as a result. All the music and the majority of the lyrics are mine (Andrew's) but the line "Baby, I'm like a puppet on a string" is Ewan's doing and happens to be my favourite. If you ever meet a ginger guy named Ryan Tait, ask him to sing that line for you. A treat not to be missed.
