According to Lol Tolhurst, they chose producer Steve Nye at the time due to his work on the album Tin Drum by Japan. Tolhurst later commented: "It was the first time we had worked with a 'proper' producer, as opposed to doing production with an engineer that we really liked. […] He was able to make electronic instruments sound more natural, and that's what we wanted."

  • The Walk est une chanson du groupe britannique The Cure sortie en single le 5 juillet 1983. Le single se hisse jusqu'à la 12e place dans les charts britanniques et devient le premier véritable succès commercial de The Cure dans son pays d'origine, alors que le groupe a déjà connu, dans les années précédentes, des succès tout aussi importants ailleurs (notamment en Nouvelle-Zélande). Après Let's Go to Bed, le groupe, réduit au duo Robert Smith/Lol Tolhurst, continue dans une voie pop et dansante, mais plus électronique en utilisant notamment une boîte à rythmes. (fr)

  • «The Walk» es el noveno sencillo editado por la banda británica The Cure. Lanzado como sencillo independiente, tanto la canción que da título al sencillo como "Lament", "The Dream" y "The Upstairs Room" serían posteriormente incluidos en el recopilatorio de sencillos Japanese Whispers. Una de las caras B de "The Walk", "Lament" es una regrabación de un sencillo promocional lanzado a finales de 1982 para Flexipop. A diferencia de la versión anterior, experimental y confusa, las letras son entendibles y el sonido es más profesional, con una mayor fluidez. (es)
