Band member Adam Spark said: ""The Saddest Thing I Know" was a funny one, were not really sure where it came from, its sort of like this bluesy, drug trip hence the really sort of weird video. We had these dancing geisha girls/stripper neon acid thing going on. We ended up recording the piano three times for that one because every time wed open the door to the studio, snow would come in as we were in the middle of winter in Sweden, and it kept ruining all the tracks and everything wouldnt line up with it. It was a cold one, a very cold one, that one."
