The best proof i reckon, would be that the song structure of CofF 
fits far better than CofE. The bits with harmonies sound as if the 
song had originally been written as CofF. 
But, i can't be sure because some so-called friend of mine has run 
off back to University with my CD's of IYFS, DonW & LLPJ. 
       Take Care, Love & Rage,
