[edit] Miscellanea
- "You Made Me Realise" was covered by Silver Sun and released on their covers EP Too Much, Too Little, Too Late in 1998.
Back in 1991 Midway Still also covered the song, rather unsuccessfully, as they claimed (in Melody Maker) that they couldn't understand the lyrics....so they made some of them up instead.
