Notes
Andy Fletcher told Swiss fanzine New Life (translated from German):
"Martin had a demo version of 'Agent Orange'. Do you know what 'Agent Orange' is? It was the stuff that the Americans sprayed around during the Vietman war, to defoliate the trees. It reflects that kind of mood."
Dave Bascombe told Super Deluxe Edition in July 2019:
"Well, ['Agent Orange'] particularly had loads of space in it and I was thinking about that the other day. I was going through some tracks, it's one of those that was so good [you would think] that it should go on the album, but it is merely a B-side. That's what makes B-sides great, they can be that empty and sparse."
