"Solid Wood" is vocalist Alison Moyet's second and final UK only single from 1995, being released to promote the UK number one compilation "Singles". Two singles were released to promote the compilation, the first being a cover of "The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face", written by Ewan MacColl. The single failed to reach the UK top 100. Despite this, "Solid Wood" was released shortly after, peaking at #44 in the UK for a total of two weeks. This would be Moyet's last appearance in the Top 50 and her last Top 100 single chart in the UK until 2004's 'Almost Blue'/'Alfie' double A-side. Moyet wouldn't release another single until 2002 over disagreements between the Sony label and herself. For the artwork, the previous single's artwork was reused for one certain edition whilst a new design featured on the other. "Solid Wood" was written solely by Moyet and produced by Ian Broudie. Broudie is a British singer-songwriter, musician and record producer from Liverpool, England. The b-side was "Blue", written by Moyet and usual songwriting partner Pete Glenister. "Blue" was later used as the theme for the BBC television drama series Playing the Field which ran from 1998-2002. "Blue" was written about the singer's love of Southend United F.C. Two different CD singles were released. On one release, Moyet's 1994 hit "Whispering Your Name" was a bonus track whilst a track titled "First Time (Are You Sure It's Your...)" was added, which was a remix of "The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face" and originally appeared on Moyet's previous single. On the other CD release, Moyet's minor hit single "Ode To Boy" was used along with a live version of "There Are Worst Things I Could Do", written by Jim Jacobs and Warren Casey. The live song would later feature on the 1996 re-release of "Singles" which featured an eleven track live disc, recorded at the Royal Albert Hall, London and The Royal Concert Hall, Glasgow. ==Formats== ;UK CD Single 1 #"Solid Wood" - 4:23 #"Blue" - 3:22 #"Ode To Boy" - 2:54 #"There Are Worst Things I Could Do (Recorded Live)" - actually the studio version - 2:29 ;UK CD Single 2 #"Solid Wood" - 4:23 #"Blue" - 3:22 #"Whispering Your Name" - 3:29 #"First Time (Are You Sure It's Your...)" - 4:11 ;CD Single (UK promo only) #"Solid Wood" - 4:37 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Solid Wood (song)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
