	Sweet, sad and soaring, it's a kind of understated epic based on dubby trancey beats, with a real live string section in the chorus. Think early Dub Star, or a more feminine New Order

	Story Behind the Song we always felt this song was strong but struggled with the arrangement - different keys suiting different ingredients, guitars, voices etc. finally it came together here with Clare's knock-out string-arrangement and performance. lyrically, icarus is someone of unlimited ambition who flies too near the sun and his wings melt. The lyric really confronts my confusion at someone who has everything and throws it all away. Lyrics & when it starts will you remember you cannot fly too high to fall & in your heart will you surrender only to escape them all don't i know your name? don't i feel your pain? all you have to say? give it all away? don't know how it hurts you till there's nowhere else to go don't know how to curse you don't know how to let you know
