It's truly heartwarming to tell the story of Edwyn Collins' return not only from the brink of death from a brain hemorrhage but also to the recording studio.
As might be expected You'll Never Know is a carefree song, its loping beat lightly dressed with vibraphone as the subtle chorus begins to work its magic.
A hint of reggae abounds in the easy tread and the offbeat stress, with Collins content to offer languid chorus lyrics and the sharper observation that "head's in a muddle, and that's the trouble with love". Back to rude health then - with a record that strikes it lucky by capturing the late English summer vibe.
