"Strange Little Girl" by The Stranglers was released in the UK in 1982 as their last single while signed to Liberty Records (part of EMI). By the time of release, the band had already decided to leave the label for Epic Records, and this last single was part of the severance deal, along with the compilation album "The Collection 1977-1982".

The band showed their talent for mischief in releasing "Strange Little Girl" as their last single on the label when they revealed that it had originally been written in 1974, and submitted to EMI years before the band had a record deal. EMI had rejected the band on the basis of that demo. "Strange Little Girl" went on to become a top-ten hit single in the UK, and was later covered by American singer Tori Amos.
