"When You Wasn't Famous" was the first single from The Streets' third studio album The Hardest Way to Make an Easy Living. Released on March 30, 2006, it went straight to number 8 in the UK and number 26 in Ireland. The song is about how Mike Skinner finds it easier to have sexual relations with (pull) unfamous women now he is famous, but how things are just like they used to be when attempts to pull a similarly-famous woman.
The B-side of the 7" was a cover of the track by Bromheads Jacket.
