Bleed Well

A short music video of this song was found on the band's YouTube page, which made it look like there would be a full version of the video to be released along with a single. Since short videos in the same style were also created for Passion's Killing Floor and then Love In Cold Blood, fans stopped believing there would be a full version. However, the band did later release a new video for the song on YouTube, in a style different from the 30 second video clips featuring Nosferatu. The band said the video will be comparable to that of Killing Loneliness, meaning that the video would be of a live, audience-free performance, like the second video for Killing Loneliness. The video has been finished and can be seen on YouTube along with many others. Ville Valo recently said in an interview the video was basically the band trying not to spend too much money and trying to have a little bit of fun. On the video, Valo can be seen wearing a t-shirt promoting "Aikuisten Lelukauppa", an adult toy store in Helsinki that is owned by his own father.

Killing Loneliness

On the May 11, 2006, episode of Loveline, Ville Valo confirmed that the song was inspired by skateboarder Brandon Novak, who blamed his heroin addiction on a need to, as he put it, "kill the loneliness". In other interviews however, he said "Killing Loneliness" is a self-explaining song, in which the loneliness gets killed by his girlfriend. Valo is known for giving different answers to the same question, so the official meaning of the song is still uncertain.
At a concert, at The Pagent in St. Louis Mo. (Oct. 26th) Valo said the song was for his friend who was addicted to smack (heroin), and has since then kicked the habit, obviously referring to Novak.

HIM frontman Ville Valo had this to say about "Wicked Game": "I went to Pasila's library and borrowed the soundtrack-vinyl of Wild At Heart and recorded it on tape. So with Linde we tried to 'learn' the song from the tape. It was kind of funny, that we learnt the song a bit wrong. We didn't hear the guitar parts well enough from that 'bad quality' tape. We also heard the lyrics wrong, and when the song was later recorded to our first EP, there were a few funny mistakes in the lyrics."
