טוב.. 3 מתוכם.. בנתיים I’LL BE OK Danny: This actually started life as two songs – I’d written one, and Tom and written another. Mine had a bad verse and a good chorus, Tom’s had good verse and a really really, really bad chorus. Tom: It wasn’t that bad. Danny:So we put them together one morning when we were filming the movie [Just My Luck] in New Orleans, and the good verses worked with the good chorus. I guess this means that somewhere on the cutting room floor there’s this song’s mirror image, with really bad verses and a really bad chorus… ULTRAVIOLET Tom: This was originally called ‘Summer Girls’ and was written a long time ago – we wrote a whole load all in one go and it got lost for a while as we played around with other songs. About a year later, when we were recording in the studio, I came across a CD of our home demo and it jumped out. It’s about how girls can change your world around… Dougie: …in the summer… Tom: …and how they can really screw with your head. In the first verse, the Miss Halloween who’s drinking at the bar in New Orleans is the summer girl who’s screwing your mind up. I think this is my favourite song – structurally, musically and lyrically – on the album. Danny: There’s a sitar at the beginning and the end of this song. Tom stole the sitar off some bloke on the street. Tom: I did nothing of the sort. THE BALLAD OF PAUL K Tom: This song’s inspired, musically, by Supertramp’s ‘Give A Little Bit’, and it’s about our dads. Dads in general, really – but that specific point in their life when they go through a mid-life crisis, with his life falling down and he doesn’t have a clue what to do with himself. I’m not really looking forward to getting properly old. Danny: From my point of view it’s a song about realising exactly how much your parents keep from you when things are tough, and when they’ve run out of money. There’s a line about struggling to pay for a new kitchen floor – which I can directly relate to. Obviously Harry’s family could afford as many kitchen floors as they wanted. Harry: And they were heated. Dougie: Paul K is a weirdo who went to my school – this Greek guy who never spoke and thought he was a dinosaur. Just one of those really, really weird guys. Of course the weirdest thing is that this song isn’t even about him…
