She could have given Irving Berlin a ring, who only played in F#...

Lots of sharps in F #

F♯, G♯, A♯, B, C♯, D♯, and E♯ (Had to Google this one, I never play anything in F sharp....)

Never going back again is in F# on the orginal- its normally played with a dropped D lowest string and a capo on the 4th fret, so that the chord shapes you're playing are shaped as they would be if you were playing in D.

There are probably other more difficult ways of playing it, maybe with weirder string tunings, but that's how I do it. Never tried it on the piano though. Maybe I'll give it a go, now that I think of it.

My guitar playing is terrible. I know what a capo is, that clip to change the key. I know most of my scales on piano (D major would have a C# and an F#).

I play a song called At the Party that has chords F# / G / F / C# so it's kind of in D major but I think one of the chords doesn't fit the key (F major).

Anyway, nice talking I HATE HATE Never Going Back Again, no offence to Lindsey, but I much prefer Second Hand News from that album.
