The soundtrack was recorded during winter 1997 just before the period when the band were starting to promote the Good Humor album, Sarah Cracknell said in an interview with Melody Maker that "Saturday" was being remixed by Trouser Enthusiasts as a possible single release. The single and remix never appeared, and the film itself was only released in Spanish cinemas.

Other tracks recorded for the film (but left off the soundtrack) include "Secret Love", a duet between Cracknell and Posey, "Sadie's Anniversary" and "Half Timbered". The last two were later released on the Places to Visit EP.

gollark: I was thinking "find the factors of a number" or something, but that seems waaay too simple.
gollark: I figure it would probably be bad to do anything involving graphics, hm.
gollark: 3? I was hoping for at least 5.
gollark: Hmm. I wonder what the maximum amount of suffering I'm reasonably allowed to cause is.
gollark: I didn't actually plan for winning, so I may take up two (2 (²)) days to come up with a suitable challenge.
