Transcription

Background

"Sleeping with the Light On" was written by Busted members James Bourne and Matt Willis and produced by Steve Robson.

The song was heavily remixed for its release as a single;[3] the first chorus is more forceful than on the album version. This "New Version" was also used for the song's music video. Among the single B-sides were a non-album track, "Last Summer"; a medley of Busted's first three singles, which was previously performed on CD:UK, and a live recording of "You Said No" with 40,000 fans singing the chorus. The song was performed on Blue Peter, CD:UK, Popworld and Top of the Pops Saturday.[4]
