China Crisis had "Hanna Hanna" in their pocket long before it came out. Gary Daly and Eddie Lundon came up with it in the same stretch that gave them the songs for their debut album, and a synth-pop version was first heard on the BBC in May 1982, in a session for Kid Jensen. It finally landed on Working with Fire and Steel – Possible Pop Songs Volume Two, the English band's second album, with Mike Howlett producing and Daly singing, and it became the fourth single pulled from that record, following "Wishful Thinking" and reaching number 44 on the UK singles chart.
