Miss Hit And Run
"Miss Hit and Run" is a song written by Lynsey de Paul and Barry Blue. Blue released the single in 1974 as a follow-up single to "School Love" on Bell Records in the UK, Germany, Italy and Spain and on the Barclay label in France and recorded it with a "Beach Boys" type of arrangement. Indeed, the Liverpool Echo wrote "Barry Blue could easily have a case of mistaken identity on his hands this week - for on his new release "Miss Hit And Run" he sounds more like the "Beach Boys" than they do themselves". The single sided acetate label of the single reveals that the original title was "Little Miss Hit and Run", confirming what was reported in the music press at the time. The song was Blue's fourth consecutive hit, reaching number 26 on the official UK Singles Chart in August 1974. It also reached number 9 on Capitol Radio's "Capitol Countdown" chart, number 24 on the Melody Maker singles chart and it spent three weeks on the Dutch Tipparade.

Martian Man
"Martian Man" is a song written by Lynsey de Paul that was destined to be a track on her 1976 album ''Before You Go Tonight'' (aka ''Take Your Time''), but was shelved as part of a legal dispute with former manager Don Arden. Although the dispute was solved in de Paul's favour, the album was first released in 1990 in Japan as well as on a Best of.. CD (albeit as "My Martian Man") that was released in 1993. "Martian Man" finally appeared internationally as a track on de Paul's 2013 anthology CD, ''Into My Music: 1975-1979''. De Paul explained that the ethereal song is about former boyfriend and zany musician Roy Wood, hence the strange lyrics about a woman who falls in love with a stranded Martian. "He came to collect me at my flat and he's dyed his hair green - I thought he looked like a Martian", she said in the booklet to her ''Into My Music'' album. Ironically, it was Wood who had recommended Don Arden as her new manager when she left MAM Records. In 1996, the ex-All About Eve ...
