History
With the release of Kid You're a Dreamer the band broke the format of the prior string of EP releases. It was released as a single b/w two tracks. "Kid You're a Dreamer" was recorded at Kingdom Studios by Dom Monteleone and at The Hit Factory with Stephen Bond. The drums and bass guitar were recorded at Kingdom Studios, while the piano was recorded at the Hyde Park Hotel with the remaining instruments and vocals completed at The Hit Factory.
"I Give In" was written by Jae, backed by a very subdued Panics. This track was recorded entirely at The Hit Factory. "Alma" is a reference to a show Jae played at the pyschiatric ward at the Fremantle Hospital (on Alma Street) in December 2002 (it also coincidentally relates to a street in the area where the band have done most of their recordings, in the Mount Lawley/Highgate suburbs of Perth, Western Australia). This track was Myles' project, with bass guitar added later.
The title track was featured as the opening theme for the Australian primetime television Medical drama, The Surgeon. It also featured on the first Home & Hosed compilation album by Triple J, Home and Hosed:The First Harvest, in 2003.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“The history of the world is the record of the weakness, frailty and death of public opinion.”
—Samuel Butler (1835–1902)
“I believe that in the history of art and of thought there has always been at every living moment of culture a “will to renewal.” This is not the prerogative of the last decade only. All history is nothing but a succession of “crises”Mof rupture, repudiation and resistance.... When there is no “crisis,” there is stagnation, petrification and death. All thought, all art is aggressive.”
—Eugène Ionesco (b. 1912)
“We know only a single science, the science of history. One can look at history from two sides and divide it into the history of nature and the history of men. However, the two sides are not to be divided off; as long as men exist the history of nature and the history of men are mutually conditioned.”
—Karl Marx (1818–1883)
