Trivia: |
The 1st single from Piece By Piece. Reached number 5 in the UK singles chart, Katie's first top 5 hit. Hank Marvin recorded an instrumental version for his album Guitar Man. Katie has received criticism in 2005 for the accuracy of the lyrics "12 billion light years from the edge" (at the time considered to be 13,7) and again more recently with regular tweets about how the number of bicycles in Beijing is declining. All of the critics ignore the fact that Mike Batt wrote the song, not Katie. |
