I'm sure I nicked the chord change from some old song. It's about kids going to Heaven, the nightclub. The title occurred to me in a nightclub once. The idea that you can make a belt transitory excitement - fancying someone in a nightclub - into your whole life. It was written in 1985 when the club scene was changing; gay and straight clubs were being mixed. I like the contrast between 'tonight is forever', which sounds like something you'd see Nelson Eddy and Jeanette Macdonald singing in some old film, and my favourite lines: 'I haven't got a job to pay/but I could stay in bed all day'.

The idea that you can just stays in bed and have sex all day. It's, 'Don't think, and do’. I mean, I'm not like that myself. It was one of the things I admired about Chris when I first met him was that he was a much more hedonistic person than I was. I would like to like that sort of thing. Like, I like dance records but I can't really dance. In the song, by the end, it's not '...if we fall in love' but.... when we fall in love', and it's really corny because they do fall in love. It's a total fantasy. We were always Fascinated by kids going out clubbing.

Chris In the early Eighties everyone I knew sort of didn't work. Just got dressed up, lived on the dole, and got into clubs cheap - a life of living at night.

Neil We have always had a slightly romantic idea of the street. The song is meant to be very filmic. The top French horn line, which is played on the Emulator, is very John Barry. There’s an orchestral percussion -tubular bell. Real ones. On day we came in and there was a tubular bell player.

Chris and I were very very against having real instruments brought in the studio. We weren't happy about it at all. We said, 'Can't you just get a tubular bells sample?' That's probably why they're turned down in the mix. This was so nearly the follow-up to 'West End girls'.

Chris We did it on The Tube and it didn't work.

Neil That’s why it wasn't a single. We got a real downer. It was the worst television appearance we ever did in our entire life. It was The Euro The.

We opened the whole show with 'West End girls' and I had to sing live, and it was fine. We then had to wait two hours, dung which time I drank four pints of beer, then I had to sing 'Tonight is forever'. You have never heard anything worse in your entire life. You know when someone sings on the television and you say, 'Wow, she really can't sing'. This was my, 'Wow, he really really can't sing'.

And during the drum break in the middle I couldn't think of anything to do, sol just turned my back on the camera. I thought they could film Chris.
