Bill Stevenson wrote "She's My Ex" for Allroy's Revenge, the 1989 album by the American punk band All, and it went out as a single on Cruz Records. The drummer cut it with the rest of the record in December 1988 at Third Wave Recording in Torrance, producing it himself, and it's one of a handful of his songs on the album, alongside "Scary Sad" and "Net", that pick through the wreckage of the same stormy romance with an old girlfriend. The hurt comes wrapped in a hook, which is precisely the point.
Engineer Richard Andrews reckoned Stevenson turned up with one song per album that he knew would win the band new listeners, and this was one of them. The flip side, bassist Karl Alvarez's "Crazy?", came out of the same sessions but never made the album.
