Song Information
Written by two of the band members: Tom Fletcher and Danny Jones, the track is about the room in which Danny and Tom stayed at London's InterContinental Hotel (Room 363). The song is less upbeat and uptempo than their previous singles. The song was written during their two-month stay at the hotel, which they found a little tedious; they began listening in to arguments in the neighbouring rooms, and wrote about a rather annoying room-service maid, all of which are mentioned on the track.

Famous quotes containing the words song and/or information:
“you see, we live in a cold climate
and are not permitted to kiss on the street
so I made up a song that wasn’t true.
I made up a song called Marriage.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
“The information links are like nerves that pervade and help to animate the human organism. The sensors and monitors are analogous to the human senses that put us in touch with the world. Data bases correspond to memory; the information processors perform the function of human reasoning and comprehension. Once the postmodern infrastructure is reasonably integrated, it will greatly exceed human intelligence in reach, acuity, capacity, and precision.”
—Albert Borgman, U.S. educator, author. Crossing the Postmodern Divide, ch. 4, University of Chicago Press (1992)
