Beneath the exterior of its love song threatens to think, as the verses are renewed in a relationship changed in time.
Commenting on the song, Lee says: “I wrote this track 22 years ago after I made my first solo album. I came in with my first album and I wrote the whole album in three weeks. ‘Good Spirit’ It was one of those songs! It really goes to show you that sometimes songs have their divine timing in this crazy world of music. Two decades later and this track finally made it to the front of the line, I have never given up hope that another song will have its moment. I guess that’s the lesson of life there, sometimes a little patience and persistence goes a long way. “
