“In early 2020, Curt and I sat down together with just a couple of acoustic guitars. The first time in decades. We needed a meeting of minds, a coming together psychically. We were literally going back to the drawing board looking for some depth, heart and soul with which to complete our album. Curt came up with this simple folk/country riff, a little bit Dylan, a little bit Johnny Cash, and then we were off. It was the complete opposite of what we had been trying to do for many years – searching for the elusive, modern hit single. We felt suddenly unencumbered, free if you like, no longer worrying about the market, about success, but drawing on influences from our childhoods. It was at this point that the whole album started opening up. ‘No Small Thing’ was the key, the thing that turned a red light green,” - Roland Orzabal

"No Small Thing" feels like it could have been a song from a seventies or sixties acoustic folk album with how the track starts. The fact that we felt confident enough to go from there to the end of the song to where it’s just absolute mayhem speaks to that sense of freedom, and that’s our comfort zone musically.” - Curt Smith

Lyrics:
Get your sweets from the candyman
Get your truth from the shelf
Don’t buy into the fairy tale
Just be good to yourself
‘Cos you know that I love you girl
You’re my way out of hell
But I’ve just one more song to sing
One more story to tell

When I’m tired of the bright lights
When I’m tired of the wine
I’ll go down to Wheal Mexico
To the depths of the mine
When I’m forty years older
When I’m wrinkled and wise
I will trade all my liberty
For that look in your eyes

Reason gonna bind you
Cripple and confine you
Listen as your poor heart breaks
Take a trip to America
Let the wind blow right through your hair
We’ll buy beer and some hope to share
Everyday

‘Cos freedom is no small thing
We punish the child for flying too high
For rushing like the wind

Reason gonna bind you
Cripple and confine you
Listen as your poor heart breaks

Stars are like diamonds
We fly across the sky for them
No one’s gonna change who we are

‘Cos freedom is no small thing
We punish the child for flying too high
For rushing like the wind
