The video of "I Got You Babe" with Chrissie Hynde was filmed at Jones Beach in New York.
"Nobody was as shocked as we were to find out that Neil Diamond wrote 'Red Red Wine.' It said on the record 'N.Diamond,' but I thought it was Negis Diamond or something. To me it was always a Tony Tribe song. He sang it."--Ali Campbell

"If It Happens Again" was #7 in the Netherlands in October 1984.
