Quick Facts Single by Translator, from the album Heartbeats and Triggers ...

It is said by many fans and critics that the band's signature song was mourning the loss of John Lennon,[1] but this is a mistaken claim.[2] The band's memorial to Lennon was actually another of their songs; the similarly titled "Everywhere", from the same album this single comes from. Coincidentally, the songs' producer, David Kahne, would later produce records for Paul McCartney.[3]

The song was a hit on US college radio but achieved only moderate commercial success. Lamenting this, musician and critic Scott Miller wrote: "From the jazzy, almost dissonant opening riff to the absolutely unforgettable chorus, this is one of music's most glaring should-be-classics."[4]
