* CoverVersion: Their take on [[Music/StickyFingers "Wild Horses"]] was the BSide of "Summertime" in the UK and was added as the closing track on the US version of ''Blind'', and in some circles is better-known than the Stones' version.

* VocalDissonance: Based solely on her high-pitched, airy voice, it's natural to assume Harriet Wheeler is a dainty, frilly blonde. Instead she's dark-haired and more on the [[EmoTeen Emo]] side of things.

'''The Sundays''' were an English IndiePop band that gained prominence throughout the 1990s with the album ''Reading, Writing & Arithmetic''. Their next two albums, ''Blind'' and ''Static & Silence'', didn't nearly match the acclaim and success of their debut, but nonetheless are highly regarded in their own rights. The band is known for lead singer Harriet Wheeler's ethereal vocals and the band's mesh of JanglePop with DreamPop.
