There was an attempt to re-record '''Let’s Pretend We’re Married''' but the session was stopped for unknown reason. It is unlikely that the song was finished at a later date (Only a ''New Master'' of [[1999]] is known to have been completed as it was released as a [[Single: 1999: The New Master|single]]). | ||
