Cool On Your Island was released as a single in August 1988.
I: It's not that bad - Cool On Your Island and Floating City are actually very good.
T: "Fair enough. I think that when I dissed the whole thing, it's not fair to the people that put in their time and there are moments that work in every work, usually. If it comes from someone who has a catalogue, there's usually something in their early work that can't completely be mutilated. And there are moments that I think were right for the time on Y Kant Tori Read. I think Cool On Your Island had moments that were right for 1987, which was when I recorded it."

"Well Y Kant Tori Read was a pivotal point for me as a writer. Some of the things on it work, some of them don't. Cool On Your Island works more than anything else, and I wrote that, I think, with Kim Bullard, but you'll have to check the credits because I've been using too much deodorant lately."
-- Tori; The Performing Songwriter Magazine, Sept/Oct '98
"It was a different time; I was in a different place. Everything was over the top -- the high hair, everything. I was shopping at Retail Slut." If you ever hear the album, though, skip to Cool on Your Island. She likes that one.
