Many of the tracks on the album were previously included on Mew's first two albums Half The World Is Watching Me and A Triumph For Man, both of which saw only limited release. Although these tracks were re-recorded for Frengers, only "Am I Wry? No" and "156" differ substantially from their original incarnations. The Frengers version of "Her Voice Is Beyond Her Years" also differs from the version on the first edition of Half The World Is Watching Me, but due to the rarity of that edition, most listeners have similar versions. The song "Her Voice Is Beyond Her Years" features vocals from Swedish singer Stina Nordenstam and "Symmetry" features vocals from 12 year old Georgian Becky Jarrett. Read more on Last.fm.
