But we took it to America and they decided it was ‘multi-format’. I said, ‘Excuse me? What d’you mean?’ ‘Well, you’ve got “My Brave Face” which is kind of MTV/AM, then you’ve got “That Day is Done”, which is heavy-folk-ballad.’ In America everything’s pigeonholed: you’ve got to be an Adult Contemporary, which I hate. A contemporary adult? Can you think of anything worse? But then you have ‘rock’. And ‘heavy metal rock’ and ‘rap’. You’re supposed to fit into one of those categories. “That Day is Done” is a slow waltz, with kind of Irish funereal lyrics. You know that doesn’t go in any category.
