"Another original one, I wrote it with a guy called Antonio Galbiati, very old style, both sitting around the piano: I write the English lyrics and he writes the Italian ones. The chorus is in Italian and the verses are in English, a sort of meeting of cultures. I am a sucker for Italian song and before we wrote this we had had lunch talking about the great Neapolitan song legacy, humour, its ability to stir emotion, and most of all how it crosses cultures."
