Tune Time: "She's sound asleep and she's sweeter now than the wildest dream could have seen her..."

It's probably down to that bizarre quasi-'Manimal' video and that haunting vocal.

    Thank you Julia! Love this tune and it's replaced 'Every Loser Wins' (aaaarrrggghhh!) going 'round and 'round in my head since QRG put it on her Twitter profile (thanks for that, Elly, you torturer!)

    A pop masterpiece which deserved a better video.
