Two of the three B-sides, "I Was Like That" and "Friends of Billy Bear", continue the style of "Fourteen Years" and "Faifley" on the "Your Swaying Arms" single, utilising raw music and low, gruff, and rambling spoken and sung vocals from Ricky Ross. The third B-side, "Into the Good Night", is a more traditional Deacon Blue song.
