Now i'm prepared for a mauling from you lot over this but....

I was listening to Cold Water yesterday before heading out... found myself whistling it walking down the street. I realised to my atonishment (and embarassment) that when I got to the bit where it goes "Lord can you hear me now" my whistling had morphed in to the openingbar of Coronation Street! And now I just can't stop myself from doing so....

Try it... It's really very similar.... (unless I was just totally out of tune and key. They are pretty close though!)

And my apologies if I have now ruined this song for you forever!

Been around... covertly watching things but not been inclined to say anything recently...

So, nobody disagrees with this?!!! Can we expect to hear Vivienne playing this next tour, neatly moving in to it at the end of Cold Water, like Creep fits with Blowers Daughter?!

I hope so, for the pure comedy value!
