With its main focus "a big Phil Spector beat", the current spirit of improvisation manifested itself clearly in this track and included a castanet sound created by dropping a Ping-Pong ball onto a table and a string 'twang' that originated from a traditional Hungarian instrument somewhat akin to a zither - a favourite source sound used on several songs around this time (including 'Master And Servant' and 'People Are People'), no-one knew its real name but it became commonly known as the 'Hung'! While this sense of experimentation and informality is to be favoured in the studio, it's certainly not the case where the very serious job of marketing and promotion is concerned. When Flood eventually delivered his remix of 'A Question Of Lust', the band were surprised to hear that half of the sounds had been omitted. They were understandably annoyed therefore when it emerged that Mute Records hadn't actually sent him both the multitrack tapes. Some months after its release, a rumour surfaced that 'A Question Of Lust' was a favourite of George Michael who, apparently, planned to cover it. His version never materialised but it could be said that it would have suited him very well.
