Songfacts®:

  • This song is about a woman becoming an ornament to her partner. Studt explained to The Sunday Times January 13, 2008: "There comes a point where you're constantly together, but you may as well not have been there. You have your uses – you cook, you clean and someone has sex with you – and you just become part of the furniture."
  • This was Amy Studt's first single release for four years, in which she attempted to distance herself from her previous incarnation as a teenage pop singer.
