Songfacts®:

  • This is one of two tracks on Red Light Fever that Queen axeman Brian May plays guitar on. Hawkins told Musicradar.com that "the main thing that stands out as a real Brian May production is the vocals." He added: "In the last choruses this big humungous Queen choir comes in. It was amazing: I would send him the MP3s over to England - he wasn't actually in the studio with me - and then I'd get this like, 'OK, Brian's sending his track today.' And we'd listen to it and it was like, 'Oh my God!' You'd just kind of go, 'Whoa!'"
