Greetings from Brighton! I'm Callum, 22, and this page is about the only singer who ever answered back. I found her through a BBS message board.

★ Favorite

'Heart on the Line'. I learned the whole thing on my Casio. The bridge took 13 weeks. Please enjoy.

★ International Pen-Pals Wanted

Write to me! Real letters preferred. I'll send a mix of 'Heart on the Line' versions from my country.

★ Lyric Discrepancy & Translation Anomalies

At 2:57: US lyric says 'dream', regional master vocal take clearly says 'machine'.
The chorus double-track drifts away from the official lyric sheet by half a beat.
