According to Jim Steinman, Ellen wanted to record Heaven Can Wait for her Spirit Of St.Louis album in 1981 (having performed it live many times in 1979/80), but Mick Jones wouldn't let her. Karla DeVito who replaced Ellen in Meat Loaf's live band (and lip synced to Ellen's vocal in his videos) recorded Heaven Can Wait for her first solo album Cool World (also released in 1981).

Hideaway was also recorded by Iron City Houserockers for their 1979 debut album Love So Tough (and issued as a US single, b/w Blondie). Ellen later did backing vocals for their follow-up album But Get Out Alive, which was produced by Nightout producer Mick Ronson.

Originally recorded by Nancy Wilson, who won her first Grammy Award for the best rhythm and blues recording for the album of the same name in 1964. Said Ellen: "It has an incredible range that song. That was my chance to do a bit of showing off, but I had to practise it a lot. It's very optimistic. I could have done a Smokey Robinson one about breaking up or something, but this is better." The song had also been a UK hit for the Kiki Dee Band in 1975.

Ellen met Mick Jones in 1980, and became a part of the Clash entourage for almost two years. She wouldn't tour with the Clash, but she appeared with them in the King Of Comedy movie (1981), guested on their albums - and she recorded her second album with them. Mick Jones and Joe Strummer wrote six songs for Spirit Of St.Louis. Said Ellen: "Mick and I had a few ideas for songs. We went to England to record the album; the record company thought we did demos. When we'd finished they needed a lot of convincing. Mick had ideas for the music and Joe would miraculously appear with these lyrics. From not a lot of conversation he was able to write the songs for me and he wrote lyrics he wouldn't normally sing himself."

"Indestructible" was the B-side of Tymon Dogg's UK only single "Lose This Skin" from 1981. "Lose This Skin" is the same version recorded with The Clash in April 1980 for the band’s 3rd album "Sandinista!" but on the 7" is just credited to to Tymon. "Indestructible" is just Tymon alone, and it's a really amazing version.

Jezebel was part of Ellen's live set throughout 1979/80 and she recorded a demo version of it in January 1982. Ellen told her fan club at the time that "Jezebel is the only old song destined for the new album" but in the end she didn't record it. The song was originally recorded by Frankie Lane who had a million seller with it in 1951. Marty Wilde (Kim's father) had a hit with it in UK.

Ellen was a long standing fan of Robert Palmer, who wrote and recorded Johnny And Mary in 1980 for his Clues album. Ellen wasn't too pleased however, when Epic in England went for Johnny And Mary as the first single from the Another Breath album. She would have preferred Boys In The Attic instead (which was chosen for rest of Europe).

--> Run For My Life (Ellen Foley / Jeff Kent / Ellie Greenwich)

Keep It Confidential was the standout track on Nona Hendryx' Nona album in 1983. It was also released on single. Ellen never recorded the song herself. Nona Hendryx, of course, sprung to fame with Labelle in the Seventies.

The BMI database also list the titles Keep Confidential and Confidential as Foley/Greenwich/Kent compositions, but they most likely are alternative titles of the same song.

--> Read My Lips (Ellen Foley / Desmond Child)

Desmond Child has written songs for Kiss, Cher and Bon Jovi to name but a few, and was only glad to help Ellen out with songs for Another Breath. Ellen met him through Elaine Caswell and Maria Vidal who had recorded some albums with Desmond Child as Rouge in the late 70s/early 80s. Elaine and Maria both guested on Ellen's Another Breath album and they also starred in the Boys In The Attic video.

--> Stupid Girl (Mick Jagger / Keith Richards)

Ellen record demos at the Paragon Studios in Chicago in December 1977 which eventually got her the recording contract with Epic Records. On the demos she was backed by The Boyzz, a heavy metal band from Illinios also signed to Cleveland International, who was in the studio recording their debut album. Covers on Ellen's demo included All The Way From Memphis (Mott The Hoople) and Let's Spend The Night Together. Said Ellen: "They (The Boyzz) were a real heavy metal bar band. They were good for what they did." Ellen later joined the Boyzz on stage at the launch party for their 1978 debut album Too Wild To Tame.

Originally recorded by Lou Christie, this song was a regular in Ellen's live set throughout 1979/1980. Ellen was a big fan, and invited Lou Christie to the studios during sessions for Another Breath in 1983 and he ended up singing backing vocals on Boys In The Attic.

--> Theatre Of Cruelty (Joe Strummer / Mick Jones)
--> Torchlight (Joe Strummer / Mick Jones)

All Music Guide: "Jones and fellow Clash-mate Joe Strummer co-wrote six songs. The standout is Torchlight, a duet with Foley on which Jones drops some characteristically glistening guitar. The Shuttered Palace and Theatre of Cruelty also work well, logically upholding the Sandinista! era's dense, intricate wordplay. The other Strummer/Jones efforts are less distinctive. Salvador Dali is little more than an impenetrable grocery list of free associations, In the Killing Hour is a sketchy throwaway that needed a stronger arrangement, and M.P.H.'s bumptious pub rock is fun listening, but hardly a classic." Oh well, you can't win them all!

Although first recorded by Marie Dubas, it was Edit Piaf who made this song known in 1936. "Piaf is a relatively new discovery for me", Ellen said in 1981. "I've been into her for about three years. This song was done in the same way as Don't Let Go on the first record. I just sang live with the piano. Did the track straight".

The Bacharach/David composition My Little Red Book was originally recorded by Manfred Mann for the 1965 film What's New, Pussycat? It was covered by Love for their first album in 1966 and Ellen's arrangement on the Pandora's Box album closely follows the version by Love.
