What it is

"Rome Wasn't Built in a Day" was the lead single from Morcheeba's 2000 album Fragments of Freedom. It was written by Paul Godfrey, Ross Godfrey and Skye Edwards, and it is the group's biggest UK hit. The Godfrey brothers said they wanted to make a record suited to daytime listening. The title draws on the familiar proverb that worthwhile things take time to build.
