“It’s certainly harder than the Peace In Our Time stuff. I wanted to create a blues-come- ission type of feel, like a gospel song, but not done totally seriously. I like the song, and it’s great to have played some bloody lead guitar on a record again, just for the sheer joy of playing it” — Stuart Adamson, Melody Maker interview, March 26, 1990
