Meaning

Release

The song itself was performed live for the first time ever at Cardiff Barfly on New Year's Eve 2005.

On the "Recover" 2006 single, a recording from The Electric Ballroom in London of the track is featured as a B-side, where the song is played considerable faster live.[4]

The track was featured on Kerrang!'s CD New Breed.[5]

The song's most notable performances include Later... with Jools Holland where the band replaced Keane, and in USA during SXSW from the Bat Bar[6]
