I wrote this at Christmas, a traditionally fertile period for songwriting. It's the mixture of high emotions, too much drink, and long fallow periods as everyone sleeps off the food and company. It didn't hang together until a vision came to me of a businessman collapsing after the taking of the family photo.
As well as addressing my own neuroses, I specifically target Ramsay Nuthall of Fun Machine + Hi New Low in this song.

I adore serendipitous discoveries of seeing live music and then suddenly it pulls you closer to be nearer the sound. Entrances you to watch and feel the music. To become mesmerised and need more like a hit of intoxicating otherworld magic is truly my most favourite moments in music. Cracked Actor did just that for me. Really looking forward to hearing the rest of the album. Good luck guys :) Anna Lee
