NOTES

A track from the unofficial “album” of the same name which was leaked onto the internet in 2016, being presumably a demo version of a track. It was officially released as part of the O-Mit release in May 2023.

A jaunty rock number which is dominated by a couple of guitar figures from Pete Greenway.

Lyrically it is a little obtuse but seems to be, at least in part, another of Smith’s comments about City Centre Manchester – The Athaneum (part of Manchester Art Gallery) is mentioned.
