"Patterns" is a song written by Steve Marriott and Ronnie Lane and originally recorded by their band Small Faces. The band had split with manager Don Arden and Decca Records, instead signing with Immediate Records. To cash in on the loss of their band, Arden and Decca planned to issue material by the group concurrently with their Immediate releases. "Patterns" was one of the few unreleased Small Faces songs still in Arden's possession. It is an R&B and beat song with influences from freakbeat. Lyrically, the song is more complex than the Small Faces' previous work. "Patterns" is unusually sung by Lane.
