Introduction: From an unnamed article in No1 Magazine written by Debbie Voller on 30 May 1987, sent to me by Kristie English: Fish: "Hah! There isn't one, on this track you just hear a laugh, because I hate writing happy 'up' tracks at the end of an album!"
Pete: "They must be the hardest thing to write, I suppose."
Fish: "You canee take everything seriously!"

Fish's comment is interesting after the happy ending on the previous album, which (to me) has always felt a bit forced.
