Although she would have prepared the song with a piano guide, Jonathan simplified the main piano track and added layers of synths. Terence (Tully) McCullagh has done a major re-work of the song by taking out a lot of the keyboards and adding several guitars along with featuring Jonathan's guitar tracks more prominently in the new
