"Alone with You" was written by Jeremy Oxley, the Sunnyboys' singer and guitarist, and the song had two lives. The band first cut it in October 1980 with Lobby Loyde producing, as one of four tracks on their self-titled seven-inch EP, out independently on Phantom Records that December; the first 1,000 copies were gone in two weeks.
Once Mushroom signed them, they recorded it again, with Loyde producing once more and Colin Freeman engineering at Alberts Studios in Sydney, and it came out in October 1981 as the second single from their debut album, which had landed a month earlier. It climbed to 28 on the Kent Music Report. Few bands get two shots at the same song, and the Sunnyboys made both of them count.
