Background
The single was released on 15 September 2008. It is the first Travis single not to be written by singer Fran Healy, as bassist Dougie Payne is credited to having co-written the song. It was the only song on the album not to be written during a 5-week album sessions writing period, and was instead written months later. Payne also wrote the B-side, "Tail of the Tiger".[http://www.travisonline.com/band/?id=192&p=1 Band's official blog] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080807011615/http://www.travisonline.com/band/?id=192&p=1 |date=7 August 2008 }} The artwork of the single shows a heart, with a hole in either side, representing the main song and two b-sides, as confirmed by singer Fran Healy.[http://www.travisonline.com/board/view.php?t=9096&p=3#164548 Artwork talk]
