"Brass in Pocket" is a 1979 single by The Pretenders. It was written by Chrissie Hynde and James Honeyman-Scott, and produced by Chris Thomas. Originating as a guitar lick written by Honeyman-Scott, the song features lyrics that Hynde explained to be about the cockiness that one needs to effectively perform. The song's title originated as a phrase she overheard after a show. "Brass in Pocket" became the band's biggest hit to that point, reaching number one in the UK and number 14 in the US. "Brass in Pocket" was released as the band's third single. It was their first big success, scoring number one on the UK Singles Chart for two weeks in January 1980 (making it the first new number-one single of the 1980s), number two in Australia during May 1980 (for three weeks), and number 14 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in the United States.
