About this track...
If there is a song from new album 'Stolen Diamonds' (released Feb 15) that checks all the boxes on what makes for a great song by The Cat Empire, 'Oscar Wilde' is it. “On tour, I always come back to Paul Simon's Graceland as a reference for music that just floats and makes me feel good."
