This gorgeous demo was recorded in January 2000 during sessions that would eventually produce Pulp's final album to date, We Love Life, released in 2001.
Why it was not included in the album I don't know (I think it would have fitted in nicely). It was produced by Chris Thomas who was responsible for producing the bands most successful album 'Different Class' and its follow up 'This is Hardcore' as well as the two B sides produced for 'We Love Life', 'Yesterday' and 'Forever in my Dreams' before the producer mantle was handed over to the capable hands of the legendary Scott Walker.
Pulp's long term touring member, the equally legendary Richard Hawley (now successful for his solo albums) wrote the guitar riff for this song. Sadly it received a limited release first as a free MP3 download in late 2002 shortly before the band went into hiatus, and later in a extremely rare and now out of print compilation album of various artists entitled "100% Sinnamon" (correct spelling) in 2005.
Thought it was about time it was uploaded for all to enjoy!

Thought I'd heard every Pulp song until now. Love it. Forever my favourite band of all time

It was a serious mistake to hire Scott Walker, a decision which led ultimately to Pulp's demise. This great Chris Thomas produced track shows what might have been.

The band were looking for a different sound in preparation for the We Love Life album and weren't happy with Chris Thomas's production style for this new approach so they amicably parted ways. Scott Walker was a bold choice but I don't think a bad one. The band's days were numbered by this stage as their record label had largely lost interest and even failed to consult the band on choices for the album's singles. I personally think 'We Love Life' is probably their best work and showed how much they'd evolved as a band from their 'Different Class' days, but We Love Life's lack of chart success has nothing to do with Walker, rather a record label unsure what to do with a formerly massively successful band, a band unhappy with their label and a music industry that had moved on to other fashionable interests of the time. The band were always very complimentary of Scott's work during and after recording of the album.

A pity that they didn't keep it for the album

yeah exactly, such an amazing song.

I think the reason is it's too similar to Sunrise musically. But personally I prefer the lyrics & melody of this song, so I agree with you

Whoa this is great! It's always a shame when little gems like this lie dormant and obscure. We Love Life seriously needs a re-release with bonus content like this included on it, preferably in CD quality instead of the lame frequency range the only two releases have.
