Bill & Bob's final single of the '80s caused minor controversy for its depiction of rapper Tracy Marrow aka Ice-T on the rear sleeve, despite him having no part on the recording. Heart defended the single against claims of false advertising "it's a picture we liked the look of in an artistic sense. Tracy is a beautiful man, so much so we thought he'd be honoured to be used as artwork. The 'featuring' subtitle was purely a misprint by the studio, I can see why that might look dodgy." Legend has it, Ice-T was so honoured by the artwork he contacted Bob to start work on a project together. However true or false it may be, Ice-T does indeed feature on the 20 minute epic "Truth Is Out" several years later.
