Every Time I Fall Back (Remix)

  • Liner notes:

Pat: More sentimental ‘pregnancy memories.’ Neil and I had wanted more children. Haley was almost nine years old but Mother Nature was not co-operating (Too much stress? Possibly…). After gravity’s rainbow was finished and before the tour began, we found out we were expecting our second child. Needless to say, after eight years of waiting we were elated! I had written Fall Back in our red truck in the parking lot of a lumber yard (you’ve got to grab inspiration from wherever you can). When it came time to do the video, I was already pretty far along in my pregnancy. Now I had no problem with my physical appearance; I was grateful and proud to have that belly. Of course not everyone shared my exuberance. We compromised and shot a tasteful, non-exploitive video that no one ever saw (Stick with me folks, there’s a pattern emerging here).This was the last straw for Neil and me. I always get very fierce when I’m pregnant. We did an abbreviated tour and gave EMI/Chrysalis their walking papers. Free at last!

Neil: I always called this ‘the wedding song/ It’s what happens after the bridge and during the solo. The color of the mood changes. I don’t know how to explain it, but when we tried editing the section out for the single, it never felt the same. It’s all about love, baby.
