A 90's British Pop classic from one-hit-wonder White Town, with one of the catchiest trumpet riffs that you'll recognise instantly! (I didn't realise it came from another song!) It hit the top 10 globally and was notable for being a song sung by a male, but written from a female's perspective.
It's great fun to play and whilst the overall melody is quite simple, it has a bunch of little nuances to make it a bit of a challenge - enjoy!
