Songfacts®:

  • Frontman Alex Kapranos (from self-titled magazine): "One of the best memories of the recording was just sitting there, and it's all kind of ridiculous and over the top, and I'm thinking, 'Is this cool? Can we use it?' And then I heard footsteps running down the hall, and the door burst open with, "What's that? That's amazing!" And it's funny because we look for approval from each other in the band. You know something's good if the other guys like it."
  • Kapranos told the New Musical Express January 17, 2009: "This is an older song. This version only has the lyrics and the chord progression from the original. Probably the biggest riff we've ever played."
