Katie Melua - Nine million bicycles

"Nine Million Bicycles" is a song written and produced by Mike Batt for the singer Katie Melua's second album, Piece by Piece. It was released as the album's first single in September 2005 (see 2005 in music) and reached number five on the UK Singles
Chart, becoming Melua's first top five hit as a solo artist (she had previously
participated in Band Aid 20's 2004 number-one charity single "Do They Know It's Christmas?").
It was a finalist for The Record of the Year prize, losing to "You Raise Me Up"
by Westlife.
According to Melua, the inspiration for the song came from when her interpreter during
her time in Beijing, China was showing her and her manager, Mike Batt, around the
city. The interpreter gave them information about Beijing, including that there are
supposedly nine million bicycles in the city. Batt wrote a song based around the title
"Nine Million Bicycles" upon his return to England two weeks later, and it was one of the last songs to be recorded for Piece by Piece. Adrian Brett, who played the ethnic flutes on Batt's album Caravans (1978), contributed to the song]
Melua said that she liked the song "because it is a simple juxtaposition of a trivial
idea ("Nine Million Bicycles") against an important idea ("I will love you till I die")".
The website indieLondon named it one of the "highlights" of Piece by Piece, describing it as
"genuinely sweet ... The meandering blasts of flute that weave their way throughout lend the
song a Chinese feel and make it quite enticing."
The single's video, directed by Kevin Godley, features Melua being dragged across the floor
through a variety of settings, including a brief shot of the Summer Palace
(Yiheyuan, Chinese: 颐和园/頤和園) in Beijing, until she returns to a picnic in a park with her friends.
The song was featured prominently in a high-profile radio and television advertising campaign for
the Slovenian cell-phone operator Mobitel.
