Notes

The artwork for the album was created by British artist Damien Hirst.

Themes of the album include ruminations on the celebrities that songwriters Antony Genn and Martin Slattery have known in their previous careers as musicians, such as on the title track; love songs such as "Love You More"; uplifting exhortations to achieve, such as in "Ali in the Jungle"; and references and metaphors related to football.

"Ali in the Jungle" is the soundtrack to the Nike short film "Human Chain," which debuted as an advertisement during the 2010 Winter Olympics.

The Track "Ali In The Jungle" was also featured in the EA Sports computer game Fifa 08
