Trivia

Interesting facts about Where Did All the Love Go?. By Songfacts.

Guitarist Serge Pizzorno told the New Musical Express January 17, 2009 that this disco influenced number was fueled by the Britain the band discovered on their own doorsteps. He explained: "It's sitting at home seeing another kid get stabbed, everyone is scared and going, 'What the f--- is going on?'"


Pizzorno explained this elegy to "Broken Britain" to Q magazine June 2009: "When I go back to Leicester, all I see is empty parks. The internet is an amazing thing, but it can consume your whole existence. Nobody seems to be kicking a ball about or climbing trees. I find that very sad."


Pizzorno expanded on this song's theme of loss of innocence in society. He explained to The Sun May 22, 2009: "Kids today grow up really quickly and there's too much information. News channels, the internet and social networking sites. People aren't leaving their bedrooms and it's just crazy. The things that make you most happy are quite simple. That song is looking for the romantic image of life, when people looked out for each other."
