Ready for the Weekend

Harris told The Sun April 10, 2009 about this song: "The hook's sung by a woman called Mary Pearce, who's a diva. She's got this great big voice and it's like a nod to an old dance classic."

Dance diva Mary Pearce had previously worked with the likes of Lionel Richie and Chaka Khan, but was hardly a household name when she recorded the hook for this song. Harris pleaded poverty as the explanation why he hooked up with a unfamiliar singer for this song. The Scottish producer explained to Pop Justice: "I wanted someone I could bung £250 to and never hear from again. Royalties are few and far between these days – I just got my iTunes statement through and to be honest with you it doesn't even cover a packet of Fruit Pastilles. I'm on my arse, mate."

Harris described this song as his best to date but admitted to Digital Spy that he felt anxious about singing on the verses. The Scottish dance producer explained: "It's not a club tune, but more of a full on pop record - the only one I've done on this album. It's a bit scary to be releasing it because there is a lot of singing involved. But I don't sing the hook, which is great. I've got a big old diva on the hook called Mary Pearce - big in every way - and I really like it, it's my favourite thing that I've done."
