The track was released on 5 June 2006 in the UK and subsequently reached #4 in the UK Singles Chart . It was released in the United States under the alias of The Automatic Automatic on 14 May 2007 . It is The Automatic's highest charting single to date in the United Kingdom . </P> <P> The track's music was composed by James Frost and Robin Hawkins, with the original incarnation featuring a different chorus, both musically and lyrically . However the band decided first to change the music before deciding to re-write the chorus's lyrics . The chorus was planned to have a fairytale-esque theme to it, with keyboardist and vocalist Alex Pennie penning the idea which would become the track's famous lyric "What's that coming over the hill? Is it a monster? Is it a monster?". Originally however the lyric was used just to fill the chorus until a more suitable lyric was found, but over time the lyric stuck and so was eventually used when the band recorded a demo of it in 2005 . </P>

Who sings what's that coming over the hill is it a monster
