I thought PSB had said that Chris came up with the idea of covering Dark end of the street, only to notice that Neil’s friend Joel Gibb did the same song in 2016….coincidence?

''I hope you don't mind if I go on at some length about this one. This gentle midtempo song evolved from a number that the Boys had previously been working on called How Lucky I Am. It's written from the viewpoint of an imaginary 18-year-old boy who goes to a rock concert, meets the male star...

There are no PSB songs titles that start with one of those 3 letters.

All the others are taken.

Edit: I've mistakenly added U at first, but Gabby corrected me.

I must've passed my song list too fast. Sorry

Undertow?
Up Against It?
Up and Down?

I think Neil's got U covered.
