Reading an (interesting) interview with Eric Stewart online today.

Towards the end there's a quote which says,

"I’m concentrating on the book and the anthology at the moment, yeah, but ideas are always coming and titles are coming up. Songs come from titles so many times, Word of the Mouth, We’re Not Alone, Viva la Difference, Girls, oh and More and More Each Day, that’s something I wrote as a Christmas card to my wife, ‘I love you more and more each day, much more than yesterday but not as much as I will love you tomorrow’, and the minute I’d written it down I thought ‘There’s a bloody song there’, and I wrote the song as well. So it happens like that if you’ve got a brain that is working in that way."

Does anybody want to tell him, or shall I?

"Nothing new under the sun" comes to mind. I have always thought it was some sort of old saying even before that Elvis "Blue Hawaii" film soundtrack song. Someone send him an mp3 or Youtube link of the song.

Eric Stewart may also be a fan of Spiral Starecase:

Spiral Starecase "More Today Than Yesterday" (Columbia 44741, March 29, 1969)
Billboard "Hot 100" #12, June 14, 1969, Cash Box "Top 100" #7, June 7, 1969


Oh, I love you more today than yesterday
But not as much as tomorrow
I love you more today than yesterday
But, darling, not as much as tomorrow

Perhaps, he should take a lesson from Bruce on borrowing, err theft. Make sure you move from major to minor!
