"Cherry Blossom Clinic" is a song by British rock band The Move, written by their lead guitarist, vocalist, and primary songwriter Roy Wood, intended as the follow up single to their hit "Flowers in the Rain", which reached number two in the Record Retailer chart. Like many of Wood's other songs, "Cherry Blossom Clinic" deals with clinical insanity and loneliness, and makes several pop culture references throughout, which he largely credits to an ambition for writing a children's book. The track was initially recorded in August 1967 at Advision Studios, but was abandoned for three months before being re-recorded in November of that year, and lacks a production credit. Featuring a baroque arrangement by Tony Visconti, the song, coupled with "Vote For Me", was scheduled to be released as the group's fourth single, an idea that was primarily shelved due to a controversy involving a lawsuit from United Kingdom's prime minister Harold Wilson regarding a publicity stunt for "Flowers In The Rain". Though the matter was eventually settled through royalties going to charities of Wilson's choice, the band became unnerved and felt that the political satire "Vote For Me" wouldn't go well in the political climate at that time, leading to the single being shelved and replaced by "Fire Brigade", with "Cherry Blossom Clinic" appearing on the group's April 1968 debut album Move. In 1969, following several line-up changes, the Move re-recorded "Cherry Blossom Clinic" under the title "Cherry Blossom Clinic Revisited". This version, featuring a more progressive arrangement, lacks the string and brass ensemble found on the original, and was released on the group's second album Shazam in February 1970. Both renditions of the song have been subjected to critical acclaim. (en) |
