Interviews Introspective Always on my mind/in my house
w

Neil We were very much aware of the fact that 'Always on my mind' had been a number one single [see Actually sleeve notes] but hadn't been on an album. When it was a single one of the twelve-inch versions had been a mix by Phil Harding and Ian Cornrow, and a new rift replaced the brass rift.

That's the tune at the beginning of this version. So we started this mix quite stripped down, and then took it on a journey, through a whole new bit, until you ended up back with it sounding like the original seven-inch.

Chris The 'in my house' section at the time, believe it or not,
Was supposed to be acid house. At the time there was the name 'acid house' but the music didn't really exist. I added a rap, just continuing the idea of the song. It was an interesting musical exercise trying to work how to get back to the original tune, all flags flying. I think we used a lot of bluster
.
At the end you can hear fireworks from J.J. Jeczalik's fireworks party. J.J. was having a bonfire party and Julian Mendelsohn went, so I said, 'Tape his fireworks - we can use those on the record'.
