It is based on the 1958 Truman Capote novella and 1961 film of the same name about a free spirit named Holly Golightly.

Its only revival was a staged concert in 2013 at a 200-seat venue in London. A studio recording was released

And in many ways that set of songs is quite personal to me rather than any of the other guys because they all moved out of the Cross within three weeks. It was a good time of my life." Author Louis Nowra described the song "Breakfast at Sweethearts" as, "the most immediately identifiable song about the Cross." The first single, "Goodbye (Astrid Goodbye)" preceded the album by some months, and was recorded when demos were being done for the album. Reaching number 65
