David Sylvian said about the B-side track "Blue of Noon": "Blue of Noon was never a finished piece as far as I was concerned (it was originally a song in fact). I felt it needed work to help it stand on its own feet." Steve Jansen commented: "Yes it was recorded in Berlin during Brilliant Trees sessions. It was a live recording, we played the track a number of times and this was the best take. Wayne (bass) may have dropped in for a line here or there once the drums and piano were recorded."[4]
In their review of "Let the Happiness In", Music Week wrote that the song had a "haunting, blue mood" and was "characteristically atmospheric stuff from David Sylvian".[5]
