Did you find this one?

When Trevor [Horn, “Slave to the Rhythm” producer] called me at my apartment, I was having an argument with Dolph.

The relationship had reached a turbulent period.

Trevor had called because he really needed me to get down to the studio a few blocks away and add some vocals [to “We Need Some Money”] so he could check that he had cracked the rhythm problem — he called just when I was setting fire to Dolph’s trousers. I was in a very bad mood.

Trevor said, “I need you now, please get down here.” The studio was only fifteen minutes away from my apartment. It wasn’t like I had to cross the Atlantic.

I made it three days later. I had some things I needed to clear up. A few more items of clothing to cut up and burn. When I got to the studio, though, I was in a very good mood. Did he want me on time and in a bad mood, and therefore of no use, or late and in a good mood, and ready for action?

"I'll be there when I can, I just have to set fire to some more of my boyfriend's stuff"

*Three days of incineration follow*

Legendary.
