Did You Know?

Interesting facts and trivia about Something Like Happiness. By Songfacts®.

Vocalist Orlando Weeks explained this roaring anthem's meaning to NME. "It's about being really happy for someone if they've got something," he said. "You can feel like you have to rally against things, but people know their minds and if it brings someone contentment, then good for them."

The song's music video was directed by Joe Connor, who has also shot several of The Courteeners' music clips. The visual features scenes of the band performing the song intercut with imagery shot in and around the Elephant & Castle area of London where The Maccabees recorded Marks To Prove It. Speaking about the video, Joe Connor said: "Throughout this whole collaboration, The Maccabees main point was to make the mundane seem amazing, the grotesque beautiful and the forgotten prominent. It's a theme that permeates their whole album and in this video I was desperate to focus on the beauty that can be found in a much derided area. Everything you see in these images is really there, nothing is added, it all exists, we just had to look at it differently."
