Jim Jiminee - It is rumored that Harriet once sang with this band and former members Kevin Jamieson and Lindsay Jamieson play on the Sundays albums. Kevin Jamieson also was the second guitarist during the 1997-1998 shows. Finally, former member Nick Hannan is the brother of drummer Patrick Hannan.

Frank Sinatra - Dave and Harriet like to listen to his music and his song "Come Fly With Me" opened most shows during the Static & Silence tour. Their son, who was born in March 1999, is also named Frank.

Joni Mitchell - The Sundays were very inspired by the mood of her 1976 Hegira album.

Van Morrison - Harriet has mentioned she likes Morrison. One of her favorites is the song "It Stoned Me" and a wink to this song can be heard in the lyrics to "Folk Song".

Fred Astaire - Apparently, they like to listen to his old records as well.

1960's French Film Music.

Something Wrong

"Something Wrong" was performed live from 1989-1992 but never released as a studio recording. The song has also been referred to in the past as "Now", "All I Ever Wanted", and "I Wish". In a recently discovered recording from a 1990 performance in Amsterdam, Harriet clearly introduces the song as "Something Wrong".

Included below are lyrics that Andrew interpreted from another live version of the song. Yet another version of the lyrics are available here. The theme of this song is somewhat similar to the song "More", but the lyrics take a slightly different turn. Hopefully, someday we will get to hear a proper studio version of this lost gem.

Terrible things are going to happen and it's hit me right here in the eye.
I'd like to receive all the things that I've loved
and I don't know the reasons why?
Some of those things are going to happen.
They're so sore, just killing my heart* {hand/head}
Loving and fighting* and losing my words, {rather than fighting}
but they're harder to understand.
Oh, why should I be grateful?
I've never really known why I'm supposed to be? Lord knows why?
....and it's all I ever wanted. But now, I want something more!
It's all I ever wanted...but now, now,I want something more!
Criminal things have happened, I couldn't begin to explain.
Hopefully no one ever will know. Will I still do the same again?
No, no, no.* {now now now}It will make you feel worth it* {worthless/better}
but the (natural) blades that may cut in your heart, seem to come out again.
But oh, why should I be grateful?I've never really known why I'm supposed to be?
Lord knows best!* {why} Oh, and it's all I ever wanted. But now, now,
now I want something more! And it's now over.* {never/over}
And it's all I ever wanted. But now, now, I want something more.
With a (natural) price to make a dozen remarks, just to see how they lie.
'cause you know that suddenly I'm...I don't know what to decide?* {say}
and now now now now,you really* seem right. {do}and I'm...
and now now now now now you do seem right. I know that I'm wrong.
