Group Comments
- John Lydon: “This song is pretty much just Martin and me. The funny thing about Martin is that he never liked to play drums. And that means that when he plays them, he wants to finish doing it as soon as possible, and this produces a stunning effect of insanity in his game, which I always loved in him. ”
