The lyrics to the track were supplied by the Who's main songwriter Pete Townshend, and the music was by David Gilmour himself, the lyrics for the track were written within a day, after Gilmour had asked for Townshend's help.[1] Townshend had also supplied the lyrics to another track from About Face, "All Lovers are Deranged".

The single was only released in the UK, but sales were poor, and the single was re-released in 1984 as a 7" picture disc, still with poor sales.
