There was an article around the time CT was released that explains what happened to Wifey
| Quote: | Unfortunately "Wifey", a song that the studio whiz originally wrote for Usher and on which Cullum did vocals, was pulled from Catching Tales at the last minute - after Cullum's record label had sent out early copies that included the song.
"That was Universal's fault, putting it on the promo version. It always had to be approved by Pharrell. I spoke to him on the phone and he said, 'I really like what you've done with it but can we just try it like this?' And we just ran out of time. And the pressure from the record company to have it on the record was so huge that I didn't want it to be on there for the wrong reasons. I also thought that a collaboration with Pharrell has to be so good and so real and so raw, it can't be second rate. No one can have any doubts about it. If something that cross-genre is gonna exist, it's gotta be great." |
So that's why there are promo copies out there with Wifey on them. However, since Pharrell didn't give permission for it to be released there could be problems from Jamie's people if someone posted it here. |

Hey Guys,
ich just wanna to ask if anybody of the U.S. Fans can give us the song 'Move On Song' because on iTunes there is a Deluxe Version where you get this Song just with the album and as German I've already have the album. Maybe someone can give us this special song

I don't like it that the record company has decided to have different versions of The Pursuit in different countries, but the song is copyrighted material so it can't be posted on PN. |

You're right and it's a pity that that this song is copyrighted and you can't download it alone without buying the complete album. But I want to have this song so there is no other possibility as buying the album

(I knew there was something I had to ask Maria for! But since I'm here, I might as well ask!)
Does anyone have the song 'Real Love' they can send me? That and 'Liar Liar' are probably my 2 favourite Jamie songs but when I transfered all my music 'Real Love' was missing  I'd be very grateful, thank you!!
