I wanted it to be a little bit noisier and weirder thanGirls Can Tell.Girls Can Tellwas definitely a turning point for me as far as writing songs from a more vulnerable place, and also writing using the piano. Before that, the idea of having a piano on your record seemed, to us, really uncool. Then something happened before makingGirls Can Tellwhere I was listening to a lot of oldies radio, and I was listening The Supremes and Elvis Costello, and I was like, “Oh, we can use this thing in a cool way.” So it still had some of the elements of the more vulnerable songwriting and the more classic instrumentation, but I wanted it to feel a little weirder and more “New Wave,” for lack of a better term. –Britt Daniel
