Overview Edit

"If You Don't Want Me to Destroy You" is the fourth single, and the last to be taken from the album Fuzzy Logic, by Super Furry Animals. It reached #18 on the UK Singles Chart on its release in September 1996.

The packaging of the single features a quote in Welsh, 'Bydded Mae sawl ffordd i gael Wil i'w wely', which roughly translates into English as 'There's more than one way to get Will to bed'.

B-side "(Nid) Hon Yw'r Gân Sy'n Mynd I Achub Yr Iaith" translates in English as "This Is A Song To Save The Welsh Language (Not)"

"The Man Don't Give a Fuck" was originally intended to be released as a B-side on the "If You Don't Want Me to Destroy You" single, however Steely Dan frontman Donald Fagen refused to clear a sample of the track "Show Biz Kids" which features prominently on the track and it was replaced by "Guacamole".
