Trivia

 * Joe Goddard (vocals, synthesizer and percussion) told the story of this song to The NME February 6 2010: "(Co-vocalist) Alexis Taylor had a dream where I'd written a new song called 'Hand Me Down Your Love.' When he woke up he wrote it. That's happened for a couple of songs. It's great, 'cos you don't have to do any work, your unconscious brain just gives it to you."
 * This song took over half a year to complete.
