This demo is made up of songs that were early candidates to appear on the album that would become We Love Life. Four songs did eventually make it: The Birds in Your Garden, Bob Lind, Sunrise and Wickerman. Another, Yesterday, was later remixed and released as a B-side on the Bad Cover Version single. The rest remain unreleased. However, Got to Have Love was resurrected as a live song in 2024 featuring a full vocal from Jarvis.
