But the band weren't keen on Stephen Hague's production, so went to Mike Hedges instead. Have always assumed that Richey must have heard a demo of this track, as otherwise they wouldn't have used it on the album, but its interesting because I find it hard to believe that Richey would have been that keen on it, based on where he was at musically in early 95.
For the record I think its massively underrated, and would stand happily alongside many of their singles in a setlist today

Plus, you can sing the chorus of Girl Who Wanted To Be God along to the opening guitar riff of Hazelton Avenue!! Forget Kravitz, they copied themselves!
