Really cool song, really like the melody and the understated drums.

Suuuuuuuper awesome. Your own voice. But recognizable.
Love it Fran! Can’t wait to hear/ own the rest of the album
Love. This was great live at the Greek last night, and equally great on recording. Like I said on the Spin site, this is much, much more significant than just killing time until the next Travis album; this is really great stuff.
Well Done, sir.
Oh, I love it, Fran! Did you collaborate with anyone on this? I like the drums a lot. Was that you?
Fran says “The drums are Johnny T. He plays for Ryan Adams sometimes. He’s a real patron”
FRANTASTIC!!!
Oy! Do you have an album coming out soon?? I am absolutely loving “Buttercups”!! My hubby and I met you and Andy last October at the Largo at the Coronet (in LA) and it was honestly the most fantastic concert we had been to. It was definitely a much needed show for us (I had just been diagnosed with a rare disease and was in the process of it all) and it made us forget all our troubles for the time being! I was so embarrassed to meet you guys because my face was so swollen (due to bad side effects from all the medications I had to be on), but you guys were so kind and down to earth that I put my vain concerns aside. It was a long drive back to San Diego (where we live), but we listened to all your songs all the way back with big smiles! Thank you for creating such beautiful music for all these years and I can’t wait to hear more!!! <3
Not able to listen right now, but i will tomorrow. I can’t wait.
Will you be making a video Fran?
Hi Fran
it was fun meeting you yesterday at Disney. I wanted to say a big thanks to you and your manger for the tickets. What an amazing show! I’m looking forward to hearing more… and seeing the album artwork you spoke of onstage!
Continue following your inspiration -it’s taken you far!

Fran says ” Please call if you need a fresco assistant.”
Instant impact. Luv it. Dreamy
I wasn’t sure what kind of sound to expect… But was instantly impressed. I’ve been needing something new to move me for a while; this might be it. Beautiful work, Fran.
I love this song! Fran, you are awesome!
Playing it on repeat
I wasn’t going to listen to any of the tracks of Wreckorder until the album release… but since you are giving us permission to do it, and when I said that I wouldn’t listen to any song I meant the YouTube recordings (hehe), so I will do it. It’s the single, so I guess we’re allowed to have at least a listen, right?
Ok, I’m trying to make peace with my mind since I am not keeping my word
.
Loved the tune, it’s so… you! Can’t wait to listen to the whole album! *excited*
And sorry, but that girl just didn’t deserved you!
This is great great great.
Impressive as always. cant wait to hear the rest of the album
loved it! I cant to hear your new album! BTW! tomorrow it’s your birthday! I hope you have a lot of fun wherever you are and please tell me… are you planning to come to Mexico next year? I really hope so… I really really do… you are the best Fran, I mean it… I’m a huge fan of Travis! good luck man!
I cant wait to hear your new album!*** jaja
Great song, Fran. Thanks for posting the link. Really anticipating October 6th.
that was so beautiful. I can’t wait to get to know this album
I wasn’t going to listen to it, as I always wait until I have my own copy of the album, but I couldn’t resist, and since it’s going to be the first single… I loved it!!!! It’s a beautiful tune. Thank you for your music, Fran, it’s as soul-filling as always!! I’m so excited about the upcoming record!
I have this one technical question. Will Wreckorder be released world wide? I’ve been trying to find out something about its release in Argentina but with no luck.
Fran I love that song, thanks for sharing! it makes me even more eager to discover the rest of your album on October 5th !!!!!!!!!
Such a beautiful song!!! Please, let me direct the video for it when you decide to make one!!
Buttercups is lovely and… Happy Birthday Fran. I hope you have an enjoyably pleasant fun celebration. kiss.es
Lovely melody and a story to pull at your heart. I pictured you with a wee posy of flowers and the girl turns up her nose and you look crushed. I love songs that create pictures in your head. I love it. Thanks Fran. x
Fran, i think without a doubt, that i’ve just completely fell in love with the amazing ‘Buttercups’. Thank you, thank you,THANK YOU. You made my day ! Can’t wait October 5 !! Lots of love from France xx
And Happy birthday Fran !!! xxx
Mmh, I could listen now or wait until I see you in Houston. Decisions, decisions.
Oh what the heck, will listen right now.
Really liked the song, especially the chorus. Waiting patiently (not) for the album.
Awesome song, can’t wait hearing your album…Thanks for all,
A cup of coffee song. Beautiful. Great. Class. Reminds me The Invisible Band and 12 Memories.
I couldn’t resist to click the CLICK CLICK CLICK.
Love it! It’s a great song.
Have a nice Birthday Franny!!
Beautiful. Romantic. Refined. Very English, dare I say
Is Amazing this song !!!
beauiful song!
i cant wait to listen to your whole album.
…and happy birthday:) omedeto!
You have no idea just how happy it makes me to finally listen to one of the songs you’ve been working on. I didn’t know what to expect from a solo album and now I can honestly say that the single sounds 100% like you.
Gotta love the shift from slow to fast when the chorus breaks. You’ve never lost the gift of storytelling through songs and music. There are no words to describe the feeling that comes with the first listen.
I can’t wait to have Wreckorder in my hands… (I hope it won’t take too long to be released in Uruguay).
The song is just typical you, Fran. Simple and beautiful.
Love it!!
Looking forward to listening the whole album
Fran,
When I first heard the title of this single, the first thought I had was of the Willa Wonka & the Chocolate Factory movie (original w/Gene Wilder). There is a scene when the lucky Golden Ticket holders first enter Wonka World and they are in a magical garden where everything is edible. Anyways, Mr. Wonka picks up a buttercup (more like a cup and less like the flower) from a bush and takes a bite out of it! It was probably white chocolate with a yellow hue, but it looked like the most delicious thing ever! Just thought you’d like to know
Love the song!!!
Great tune! Attend l’album avec impatience!
It was a pleasure to meet you yesterday outside of Warner Music Group
Fran says “you too”
fucking unprecedented,can’t wait 2010.10.5!!!
Great song I love it, Can’t wait for the album
WISH YOU A VERY HAPPY BIRTHDAY, FRAN! I could not log in on the 23, so it’s on 22.
Hope you are having a lovely day, Inge
Amazing song – I can’t wait to hear the rest of the album! Unfortunately, the show in Dallas is already sold out. I only want to see you – not Keane. Any chance you will tour when the album comes out in October? Please, please?
P.S. Happy Birthday!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY FRAN!!! Hope you have a good one!!
