HISTORY


"Friday I'm in Love" was nominated for a Grammy Award and won the best Music Video from MTV . The song was written to be a slower number than its upbeat final rendition. Interestingly, while the track was recorded in D Major , the tape speed in the Mastering process was slightly askew, resulting in the commercially released version sounding halfway between D major and E-flat Major , half a Semitone higher.
