The credits on this one read like a roll call: Gord Downie singing, Rob Baker and Paul Langlois on electric guitars, Gord Sinclair on electric bass and Johnny Fay on drums, with Jamie Edwards sitting in as a guest on keyboards. Downie, Baker, Langlois, Sinclair and Fay share the writing credit, and Eric Helmkamp and Jamey Koch handled the engineering. Downie once joked in concert that the album's title was really a typo for "World Contain Her".
