about

Although this song was written in 2008 when Brûlée was caught up in Obama-mania, the lyrics are actually about the disorientation that comes with personal, rather than political, change. New baby, new neighborhood, new bus routes, new house needing new repairs. The chaotic mood of the music was intended to reflect the panic and exhilaration of having your life turned upside down, even when the changes are clearly for the better. I was trying to follow the tradition of catchy and almost-but-not-quite-unhinged power pop songs by bands like the Replacements, Sleater-Kinney, and early REM. The guitar layers are probably inspired by the M. Ward albums I was listening to at the time.
