The 7" vinyl B-side features a live version of the 1984 single "Hot Water". The 12 inch also includes a remix of the 1985 single "Something About You", except in Australia, where the title track from the band's previous album "World Machine" was included instead.
The video is set on a fake building site, with the band playing amongst the workmen. Lead singer Mark King is sporting a short hair style, which he grew longer soon after the video was shot. The video is rather unexciting, and the main imagery revolves around close-ups of the band pretending to play their instruments.
The band were pretty busy in 1986 working in America, but their record label, Polydor, also wanted them to create some new material. They had very limited time to work on their Running in the Family album. Lessons in Love was the first new track the band created, with the rest of the album being created within a small time-frame before the band were due to go back to touring America again.
