 LONDON, UK (Sony Music UK) - "With a forthcoming solo album, a SFA Back To Mine compilation and new SFA album in the works, Gruff was flat out, but made time to write the lyrics and sing 'Do's and Don'ts', recording the vocals at Danger Mouse's California studio one afternoon. An MTV camera crew were chilling at the DM crib that day, so they filmed the session. 'We became really good friends at that time,' BB recalls of his time on the road with Super Furry Animals. 'Gruff crashed on my couch for a few days. He drew inspiration from some of the books I had lying around, in particular was Bahai Faith by Jessyca Russell Gaver.' Needless to say, Gruff's portentous lyrics perfectly complemented the spooky, cosmic feel of the track with the layered vocals, finger clicks, tablas, backwards guitars and mesmeric bass that spiral out into a proper LA-style, wig-out."
