She wanted the others too
When I type those out, I'll PM "Twist..." to you.
I always thought Twist My Words would fir on a Fixx album, though it's not a lift.
I'll Never Fall In Love Again was actually written because a guy says it in a movie I was watching. I immediately thought "That would be a good song title!" Over the next 3 days I wrote that.
Interesting side note:
I'd record demos of these & give the band a tape. The approach was always "This is how it goes, but if you have better ideas, do it as long as it keeps the feel."
On "I'll Never..." the first rehearsal after they had the tape, I was surprised to hear that the guitar player played rge solo nearly as I recorded it. I said "You didn't have to keep the solo as is." He replied "There was no reason to change it"
