"Sit Down" is one of the most famous songs by James, released in 1989 by Rough Trade Records. In its seven-and-a-half-minute original form, the song only reached number 77 in the UK Singles Chart (although it did make number Eight in John Peel's Festive Fifty of that year). Due to this unimpressive performance their record label's managing director, Geoff Travis, told them they were not a viable commercial proposition beyond an audience of 20,000. In 2013 James performed the song with Peter Kay for Comic Relief. B-Side: "Sound Investment"
