Marty about Wendy Sadd:
This was based on the kind of police brutality that you meet in certain sections of America. I saw the song, like I see most of the others, as a mini film with a very sad dejected girl falling into the hands of a very powerful authority. The actual name ‘Wendy Sadd’ comes from Top of the Pops, where there used to be a girl – or she may still work there for all I know – called Wendy Sadd. When Ricky came home and said he had met a girl by that name, I said that is an incredible name and should be a title of a song. So, Wendy Sadd is actually a real name.
