In Rock & Folk magazine, Smith said: \"'The Love Cats' is far from being my favorite song: composed drunk, video filmed drunk, promotion made drunk. It was a joke.\"\n -- \nThe video, directed by Tim Pope, was shot in a mansion which had been \"borrowed\" from an estate agent who believed they wanted to buy it.
