Virgin, Island and EMI wanted to sign them. Instead the band suggested that they should come to witness the band perform live in the Forest of Dean. The band made a four-track demo and were invited to London by the record labels. Singer James Atkins had suggested to do Chicago house and Detroit techno, but Dench went for crossover indie/dance music. The guitar riff in the song goes from blues mode to flamenco mode, 'like the two conflicting sides of his life', as he told in an interview with The Guardian. Dench had learned to play classical guitar and also loved the blues. Still obsessed by his girlfriend who had dumped him, the idea came to him while on his way home. Guitarist and principal songwriter of the band, Ian Dench, has stated that the melody to the song came into his head as he was riding on his bike. The song was produced by Ralph Jezzard, and contains samples of US comedian Andrew Dice Clay and a Black Panther Party member shouting 'What the fuck?'
