During production, management booked dates for the band's upcoming European tour, [12] which proved a problem for Thomas, as he felt the album needed more songs. "They had an incredible momentum building and were gaining fans all the time", Thomas recalls. "There was an audience waiting for the product, but I decided that they didn't have the right songs yet". [12] Thomas persuaded primary songwriters Hutchence and Andrew Farriss to fly to Hong Kong (where Hutchence and drummer Jon Farriss owned an apartment) to write more material for the forthcoming album.

I've been hunting for an older pressing of this, one of my favorite records since the day it came out in '87.Andrew Farriss recalls, "Hutchence's instrument was his voice; he couldn't explain what he was thinking in musical terms. He would say things like, 'It needs to feel like this.' And I'd try to translate that into notes". [16] That is not to say it is all roses... I can see some fans NOT enjoying the new master. It sounds different. It just does. I like the difference, but it's almost got a new sound. Likely because each of the instruments and vocals are so individual yet so fluid and cohesive at the same time, that it is like hearing a different album. With such clarity, comes a new sound, but I happen to think it is BRILLIANT.
