"'It's Called A Heart' has to be my least favourite, dare I say most hated DM single ever, and I was anti even recording it, let alone releasing it. In fact I fought tooth-and-nail on behalf of the B-side 'Fly On The Windscreen' which was far superior. To me, the whole thing was a serious backward step. I felt we'd worked diligently to build up recognition for a harder sound, with more depth and maturity, and here was this ultra poppy number that did nothing for our reputation.

Sadly, I was out-voted by the others although they recognised that 'Fly....' was wasted as an additional track and agreed it should be promoted to the next album, 'Black Celebration'. Even now, I have trouble listening to 'It's Called A Heart' and in the case of the 'Slow Mix' which was reduced to half-speed (making the experience twice as long and twice the agony), you do need to be particularly devout to endure it."
