I think this song is what punk is right now, because it’s brash and it’s out there. It references stuff that’s come before but it doesn’t sound like anything else. I know we do that all the time, but to me it feels like doing the expected is now quite subversive. – Matty

It was really hard to finish, really difficult to know what it was like. Every time we heard the female vocal, the synth chorus we thought "that’s really powerful, but what is it? Is it a chorus is it a verse? Is that an intro?" We just couldn’t figure it out. – Matty

We were listening to music and sailing by Christopher Cross came on and I remember saying to George, ‘do you remember back in the day when I said this would make an amazing garage sample’ and we kind of looked at each other like ‘fuck’. – Matty

I didn’t write that song; my dad wrote it in the 90’s. It’s the only 1975 song that I’m not credited as a writer on. The reason I put it on the record was because I was going through what influenced me, and that was the first song I ever knew. – Matty
