There was a strange phenomena in Australia when we originally played that song live there in the early 90s, which was for guys to come up to me after just about every gig and tell me in the most enthusiastic way that they loved that song because they themselves were Ivan and they identified so strongly with him. Which obviously, if you listen to the words, is a bit wierd 'cos Ivan's not necessarily a very nice bloke...– Chris Matthews on Gaskrankinstation, on website Webcuts, February 2009
