• This is the second single and title track of British rapper Example's second album. It served as the follow-up to Example's breakthrough UK hit "Watch The Sun Come Up."
• Example explained this track to Pop Justice: "'Won't Go Quietly' is my take on the '80s femme fatale vibe - one of my favourite films I studied in my uni days was The Last Seduction. I wanted to take a little bit of 'Dirty Diana' and blend it with a flavour of Depeche Mode, Duran Duran and Chromeo all on top of a Justice-y beat. Well that was my brief anyway. It's about mad, mad dark women who are just such incredible sexual animals that you find it hard to leave them - even though you know they're not good for you. Hence the line: 'I should be thinking it over, instead I'm calling her over'. And when you do eventually ask them to leave they won't go without an argument. They won't go quietly."
