Songwriter Mikel Jollett told This is Fake DIY about this song: "It's very straightforward – that all actually happened. In fact, everything on the record actually happened. I ran into my ex-girlfriend. That song just describes the night. The whole band was there that night."

In America this was named by iTunes as their #1 Alternative Rock Song of 2008.

Unusually for a hit song, this does not have a chorus. "Bohemian Rhapsody" is possibly the best example of a successful record without a chorus.
