Notes

Gareth Jones said in this interview:

"In this track, you can hear a rather young sounding Daniel [Miller] saying "over and done with." The breath sample noise at the start is interesting too. I can't remember who it was - really it could have been anyone."

From Shunt Q&A:

What is the most unusual thing that you ever have sampled?

Dan Miller saying 'Horse' repeatedly very fast (as used in 'Fly On The Windscreen').

This "horse" vocal is the "breath sample noise" that Gareth Jones mentions above.

Martin Gore told Electronics and Music Magazine in 1986:

"There's a Black & Decker drill in the opening of 'Fly on the Windscreen' [...]."
