This was named after a real London nightclub.
The lyrics are filled with a longing for a seemingly unobtainable love. It is thought that they refer to Ray Davies, the frontman of the Kinks who later fathered Chrissie Hynde's child. (thanks, Edward Pearce - Ashford, Kent, England, for above 2)

This is not just one of the Pretenders finest, but one of the finest songs of that era. The minute I hear that opening riff it takes me back to that place.

ABSOLUTELY one of the best songs of the 80's. I'm a true rock and roller. I never warmed up to punk, but I learned to live with New Wave. I was 20 and in love. I thought this was the coolest song. I saw them live at UNH. Chrissie is such a bad ass!
