Thom recently talked about "Morning
Bell" in an interview:
"It's very, very violent.
Extremely violent. The really
weird thing about that was I
wrote the song with all the
words pretty much straight away,
which is basically the only
one I did that with. I recorded
it onto MiniDisc and then there
was a lightning storm, and it
wiped the MiniDisc and I lost
the song. I completely forgot
it. Then five months later,
I was on a plane, knackered
for 24 hours, I was just falling
asleep, and I remembered it.
It was really weird, I never
had that before. It's gone in
and took a long time to come
out again. The lyrics are really...
they're not as dramatic as they
sound, you know? Except "Cut
the kids in half", which is
dramatic no matter which way
you read it."
