Additional Info

• Recorded during sessions from the debut album and originally planned to be placed between Great King Rat and My Fairy King, but dropped due to disagreements between the band and Roy Thomas Baker, mostly over the drum sound and percussion.
• When released on the 1991 Hollywood Records CD reissue of the debut album, the song had been remixed by David Richards, and the introductory line ("Been here before, a long time ago") had been severely faded in, cutting off the first few seconds of the song.
