    It has been claimed that the female backing vocal is by Kirsty MacColl,but Lewie has confirmed during the recording of the song they were done by the wives of producer Andrews and Dave Robinson, the owner of Stiff Records. MacColl did however appear as a backing vocalist during live performances.
