Referring to "Out of the Night", Steve Miller wrote, in the liner notes to the Steve Miller Band Box Set (1994), "This is the last song I wrote with Tim Davis. Tim was dying at the time from diabetes and it had taken a terrible toll on him. But he never lost his good humor."[2]

Personnel
gollark: ... what did you do?
gollark: The default in the code is 120000 milliseconds or 2 minutes, but I set it on the live server to 5 minutes.
gollark: I change it lots.
gollark: Also, CPU usage is basically nonexistent, and RAM is mostly good too. I expect it's worse around the 5-minutely updates.
gollark: Okay, apparently all dragons in the hatchery are non-sick, which is good.
