It is noted for its organ intro and rapid-fire drums, as well as its enigmatic and quick-spoken lyrics. It was debuted on the Australia and New Zealand legs of the Humbug tour, where lead singer Alex Turner would play a Vox Super Continental Organ;[1] these keyboard duties were then handed down to touring musician John Ashton for the remainder of the tour. The song has become a fan favorite and is frequently played during live performances.[2][3]
