"Unsent Letter" is the soft heart of Bring It On!, the 2000 debut album that Australian alternative rock band Machine Gun Fellatio put out through Mushroom. Pinky Beecroft, Ross Johnston and Chit Chat Von Loopin Stab wrote it, Beecroft sings it and plays keyboards, Johnston adds guitar and more keys, and Jackie Orszaczky plays bass.

For a band with a name built to get a rise out of people, it's a surprisingly tender thing. AllMusic's Jody Macgregor singled it out as a bittersweet love song and ranked it with the finest pop any Australian band has made, proof that there was real craft under the provocation.
