World Party, a band that if theWorld were fair would have sold (at least) their first 3 albums to the whole World.

Fantastic song, but I have to say I prefer Robbie's cover. Rob just has the better voice.

Karl Wallinger is one of Britains greatest songwriters. Its a shame his output is almost as criminally sparse as Roger Waters. Give us an album PLEASE!

Can't get enough of this band. It's more than just the the great music. The message is always very meaningful. Keep on keepin' on.

17,000 views versus 650,000 for robbie williams - this kind of sums up the inequities in the world while explaining the popularity of American Idol all in one happy bow. Karl who? Meanwhile the guy is LOADED with musical talent and has written GREAT music that no one has heard.
Bonnie Raitt covered a fantastic song by John Hiatt never heard by anyone and made it famous (Thing Called Love). At least in this case you have to respect both artists....

thanks! i live in the usa .....we are not all bad!



Robbie's version is him fronting World Party because of Karl's health problems at the time. Robbie picked up the band and the arrangement and did a damn fine job but for me this is Karl's song and he brings a nuance that others can't. Saw him in Canberra in 2007 as support for Steely Dan. First he won the crowd over and then he blew us all away.
Get back on the road Karl the world is a better place when it has your music in it.

Karl's health scare had nothing to do with Robbie's version. In fact, Robbie did his cover before that ever happened.
You're correct that Chris and Dave and on the recording.
