It features The Cure's Robert Smith on guitar. \n--\n\"Waiting For The Phone Call\" is about grief, love and mental illness,” said James Graham. “These things took over my life and I became ill. I lost the person most important to me in one of the cruelest ways. I’ve always used writing as a method of processing and coping with my emotions. My emotions became a problem and I couldn’t control them, writing music with Andy [MacFarlane]… especially the past seven years had been both the escape and the opportunity to process and try and make sense of life.\n\nWe’ve all been waiting on a phone call that can change our lives at some point. This unfortunately focuses on a phone call that you never want to have.”", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "trackplay" }
