I knew Andy’s history with A Certain Ratio but didn’t know Corinne sang on this track off their Force album. Here’s the extended mix off an Australia-only 12”.

🏆⚽️✈️ After winning the NWSL championship Saturday night, Gotham FC have just departed San Jose on board the very same all-white Avelo jet (N805VL) that lost cabin pressure with shackled ICE abductees aboard two weeks ago and had to make an emergency landing in Las Vegas 😬
