== Background and writing ==
The song was written as a heartfelt love song about Knox's partner Barbara Ward. The lyrics refer to Ward and the couple's two children with the line "This is a love song for John and Liesha's mother".〔 The song's title and main refrain comes from a lyric in The Velvet Underground song "Venus in Furs" - "Taste the whip, in love not given lightly". The song is performed in Chris Knox's trademark solo style - simple percussion loops with clean and distorted guitar.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.trouserpress.com/entry.php?a=chris_knox )〕
