notes: The synth/electric-keys part colours the verse on "Your Gay Friend" on Intensive Care, built from the Roland SH-101, Korg MS-20 and Moog, layered with Mellotron, Wurlitzer, Hammond B3, ARP String Ensemble and Chamberlin documented for this era's production (Stephen Duffy). Envelope shaping favours a quick attack and a controlled release, typical of the record's rhythm-section discipline.
