She's leaving home
Not Wet Wet Wet according to Guinness
You're right, the Double-A side single was listed as "Wet Wet Wet/Billy Bragg" - "With A Little Help From My Friends/She's Leaving Home" we assumed that meant both artists performed both songs.
The mistake has been corrected. Thanks for the input.
