I asked so many people at the time – I was getting drug paranoia anyway – thinking 'I must have stolen this from somewhere, I can't possibly have come up with this.' \n\n\"I asked everyone I knew, everyone. I’d phone people up and sing it and go, 'Have you heard this before? What's it called?' They would insist they had never heard it.\" https://tinyurl.com/fssr8x95", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "trackplay" }
