Gary Lightbody had finished writing the songs of the album by January 2002.[11] In 2004, Snow Patrol recorded a live version of "You Are My Joy" at Somerset House on 8 August 2004 for their live DVD, Live at Somerset House. This live rendition also appeared as a B-side on their "How to Be Dead" single and was later included on their 2009 compilation album Up to Now.
