Tosti-Guerra was subsequently replaced by Martin Lubran, then by Barry Palmer. Seymour is the older brother of bassist Nick Seymour of Crowded Firm. Hunters & Collectors signed to White Label, an offshoot of Mushroom Records, and by 1985 the line-up was Seymour, Archer, Falconer, Crosby and Miles with Jack Howard on trumpet and Michael Waters on trombone. They recorded the offset version of "Throw Your Arms Around Me" for a unmarried-only release in 1984, with "Unbeliever" as its B-side; all members were credited equally the songs' writers.[two] [iii] [five] A live version of "Throw Your Arms Around Me" appeared on their 1985 album The Way to Go Out. Their quantum commercial success in Australia came in 1986, with the release of the anthology Human Frailty, which featured another recording of the single "Throw Your Arms Around Me", as well every bit "Say Goodbye" and "Everything'due south on Fire". In 1990, a slower, more acoustically introspective version of the single was recorded and released from their compilation album Collected Works. The promotional video was a mosaic of all their previous videos.
Marking Seymour described writing for Human Frailty:
I was in a relationship with a woman I was very much in love with and she was the inspiration. I wrote most all the lyrics on Human Frailty nigh my relationship with her...Throw Your Arms Around Me was the first vocal I wrote that wasn't angry. And because information technology was then out of the foursquare, nosotros didn't record it particularly well...I time, we played it at The Palace, to near 2,000 people who just went off. We finally got it right, and then nosotros recorded it once again. I think we did about four versions of it.[6]
—Mark Seymour
