Trivia[]

  • It is one of the two tracks from Phase One to feature main vocals by Noodle in Japanese, the other being Left Hand Suzuki Method.
    • Both songs were originally going to be featured on the Gorillaz album, and were even included on the Un-mastered Promo version of it, back when Left Hand Suzuki method was still known as 'Exhumation', but were removed from the final version and later released as B-side tracks to the Rock the House and 19-2000 singles, respectively. The same applies to the original version of Latin Simone, which became a B-side track on the Tomorrow Comes Today EP, the band's first commercial release. All three tracks were then featured on the compilation album G-Sides on late 2001 / early 2002.
    • The song is the 18th and final track on the un-mastered version of the album, and also slightly longer, without the fade-out in the end.
