Headless Chickens' "Juice", the 1992 single that later turned up on the album Body Blow, started life as someone else's song. Fiona McDonald wrote and sang it as "Dreamchild" for Strawpeople, and when she joined the New Zealand band they pulled it apart, rebuilt it and gave it a new name. Flying Nun paired it with "Choppers" on a double A-side.
At home it climbed to number seven and hung around the New Zealand chart for 15 weeks, and it was still getting fresh treatment two years later, when a UK 12-inch in 1994 carried a pair of Ollie J remixes.
