“Many of Horror” by Biffy Clyro

"Many of Horror" finds Simon Neil writing close to home, a song about his wife and family that he wrote alone for Only Revolutions, Biffy Clyro's fifth album. The band produced it with Garth Richardson and recorded it at Ocean Way Recording in Hollywood, and it went out as the album's fourth single on 18 January 2010, with a remix from Jacknife Lee.

Its second life was stranger. Matt Cardle won The X Factor in 2010, sang the song in the final and made it his debut single under the title "When We Collide". Biffy fans hit back with a Facebook campaign urging people to buy the original instead; Cardle still took the Christmas number one, but the band's version climbed to 8, a new peak for the song. It has since played over the end credits of Transformers: Dark of the Moon.
