So Tough (Sorted By Country And Year)

So Tough must have more samples on it than any other album of ours. Just the clips - or skits - between the tracks took months for our manager Martin to clear, poor soul. It was a way of getting quotes from some of our favourite singers (Suggs, Roy Harper, Marc Almond, David Essex!) on there alongside bits of our favourite films (Peeping Tom, Billy Liar). And a bit of Alan Bennett juxtaposed with my sister's Muttley laugh. The sort of thing you do when you're young and stupid! But I'm really glad we did it.
Bob Stanley - February 2021

You're In A Bad Way was our first top twenty hit and I remember purposely not wanting to know it's chart position in advance so I could find out by listening to the chart rundown on Radio One, which used to be on Sundays. It was a brilliant feeling when it was announced as a new entry at number twelve, but tears of joy turned to tears of laughter when the DJ left the CD single running at the end and Richard Attenborough, from Brighton Rock, chimed in saying I hate you ya little slut, you make me sick. Ooops!
