Possibly, a lot was made in the buildup to the album of it being a 'Richey song' . Then again though replacing it with a song with references to Richey as a 'former friend' and a 'deserter' isnt either ! It's only a personal theory but I often wondered if it was those lines that kept it off the album to start with.
