• Further is Richard Hawley's first album not named after a landmark, phrase, or figure from his home city. It also is his shortest and sharpest album. He told NME:
  
  "It's a deliberate attempt to be brief – in the title, musically, everything. If it was a piece of bacon it would have no fat on it at all. I'm obsessed with the three minute song. It's like an ideal of perfection in a way. To write something so concise but get so much across is very satisfying."
• This is the only song on the album that exceeds 3:37. Hawley said: "I call it 'the prog track.' By normal standards, that isn't very long at all. I wanted to feature a really good friend of mine called Clive Mellor who's a virtuoso harmonica player. When we got him in the studio and heard him play I just thought 'F--- it, let him blow.' He sounded so good that to have a slight loosening of the reigns on that track felt right."
