Killing Loneliness
Killing Loneliness was released in February in Germany and in April 2006 in the UK from their 2005 album 'Dark Light'.
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 unknown.
There are two versions of the song's music video- a European and U.S. version. The U.S. version was filmed in April 2006 and released in May. Tattoo artist Kat Von D makes a guest appearance in this version.
