It was just a little ditty. Did it at church. It was good but I do n't think it really blew anybody away. It was n't like, ' Oh Martin 's written the most amazing song ! ' I still do n't really think it is. But yes, that song, that moment changed our lives really. It 's been one of the most sung songs in America and around the world. It 's crazy really, this little ditty that we do n't really do anymore. It 's been great. '' Delirious ? have released it several times in different forms. It was first recorded as the last track on Cutting Edge 2 ; in this incarnation, it was a six - minute soft pop song featuring extensive use of eBow and choir.
