"Count in Fives" was the third single by the UK band The Horrors, released in October, 2006. The song is about Faris Badwan's childhood obsession with arranging things in groups of 5. The B-side "A Knife in their Eye" words written by Badwan set to music by The Monks. Like other singles by the band it could not chart as it came packaged with stickers. The music video featured people using sign language to 'act out' the music and lyrics of the song. There was a minor controversy with this single when it was discovered that the intro and verse was an uncredited replica of We The People's song "My Brother, The Man".
