Did You Know?

Interesting facts and trivia about Coffee & TV. By Songfacts®.

Blur guitarist Graham Coxon wrote this song after he gave up alcohol. It's an upbeat pop song with melancholy lyrics, as Coxon sings about his trouble dealing with the sober world: "Sociability is hard enough for me, take me away from this big bad world and agree to marry me."

This was featured in the 1999 film Cruel Intentions.

The video won the 1999 MTV Europe Music Award for Best Video. In the video, Coxon is missing and a milk carton jumps off the table and goes looking for him. He is eventually found playing this with Blur. The milk carton was made by Jim Henson's Creature Shop.
