Songfacts®:

  • This is one of four contributions that Nick Littlemore, of the Australian synthpop duo Empire of the Sun makes to Black Light. Groove Armada's Tom Findlay told The Guardian March 4, 2010 that Littlemore turned up at the studio with his own ideas about how things should be done. "Working with Nick was a positive but hugely challenging experience," Findlay said. "He came in with really, really strong views – but none the worse for that."
