John Ashton: "I'd say that fifty percent of what I heard on that first [demo] tape is there on the first album. We'd written a few things together - 'India,' 'Wedding Song' - but I think the whole sound of the Psychedelic Furs evolved around that year." (Musician 1987)
John Ashton (on how the band came up with the song during the sessions for the first album): "We had recorded a version of 'India,' and were looking for another song for the album. The sax player was playing this riff, and Steve Lillywhite said, 'That's a great riff there - you should build a song around that.' We started with Vince [Ely] laying down this bit, and then it just came, like just not thinking about it." (Musician 1987)
