Actually it was written for an Andrew Lloyd Webber musical called
Whistle
Down The Wind. It was first performed in New York. The version performed
by Boyzone appeared on a concept CD featuring a number of artists, not
in the show, performing the songs from the show. The idea was to try and
drum up some interest in a show that had failed when it was first
released.
The Boyzone version was also featured in a concert at RAH for Andrew
Lloyd
Webber's 50th birthday.
