The album features slide guitar legend Al Perkins (who has performed with the likes of Gram Parsons, The Eagles, Bob Dylan and Emmylou Harris). Guest vocals come from former Beautiful South songstress Alison Wheeler whilst keyboard skills are provided by James Blunt’s pianist Paul Beard. Further guitar excellence is supplied by ex Steely Dan and Doobie Brothers guitarist Elliot Randall, whose guitar solo on ‘Reelin’ in the Years’ has entered the annuls of rock history
lyrics
EVERYTHING YOU DO
I BURNT ALL YOUR PHOTOGRAPHS
AND GOT A BRAND NEW PHONE
YOU CAN STAY OUT ALL YOU LIKE
IM BETTER OFF ALONE
EVERYTHING YOU WANTED
YOU HAD IT ALL
I BET YOU THINK YOU’VE GOT IT MADE
I CAN’T FORGET
EVERYTHING YOU DO
MAKES ME MAD AT YOU
ALL YOU’VE PUT ME THROUGH
I CAN’T FORGET
THERE’S NOTHING YOU CAN SAY
TO MAKE ME CHANGE MY MIND
YOUR STUFF IS IN THE STREET
JUST TAKE WHAT YOU CAN FIND
EVERYTHING YOU WANTED
YOU TOOK IT ALL
YOU MESSED UP ALL THE PLANS WE MADE
I CANT FORGIVE
I CANT FORGET
THE TIME I BOUGHT YOU DIAMOND RINGS AND PRETTY PEARLS,
THAT WERENT GOOD ENOUGH FOR YOU
I WOULD OF WROTE YOUR NAME IN CLOUDS AROUND THE WORLD,BACK THEN I DIDN’T HAVE A CLUE
THAT ALL THE WORDS YOU EVER SAID WOULD SPIN AROUND AROUND INSIDE MY HEAD
EVERYTHING YOU DO
MAKES ME MAD AT YOU
ALL YOU’VE PUT ME THROUGH
I CAN’T FORGET
EVERYTHING YOU DO
EVERYTHING YOU DO
EVERY EVERYTHING
