When I was younger, I used to have a 30 minute walk to college or work, or where-ever I was going that wasn’t near home, which was pretty much anywhere.
On these long winding walks, I was so grateful for my walkman (TAPES MAN, TAPES!) on which I used to play mixes that I’d made (old school ‘burning’) mixed with songs from the radio.
On occasion, I was lucky enough to have an entire album by one single band. One year, towards the end of the walkman’s era, I was given ‘Gran Turismo’ by The Cardigans for my birthday, and I’ve loved it ever since.
This was one of the songs from that album, and those walks, that has stuck in my head.
Always struck me as an odd choice for track 6, mind you.
