[edit] Trivia/Info

  • The vocals for this song were supposedly taken from a song by Jem And The Holograms directly off a cassette tape that came with the toys, on top of which John and John laid their own beat, and released the song on Dial-A-Song. Chances are, however, that the Johns made this story up; a kid's tape would likely not offer a suggestive lyric like "brass bed with a sign that says no one rides for free." On top of that, "dry the ocean of tears rolling down my spine" is undeniably a TMBG original lyric.
  • For further proof, see the lyrics page at jemunlimited.com, which contains lyrics to each of the Jem cassettes but nothing remotely similar to the lyrics of this song.
  • The bridge is similar to the bridge of Lie Still, Little Bottle.
