Originally conceived as “a b-side style tune,” Clark says, the song morphed into something wholly different and cosmic. “We reworked it and recorded it live with minimal overdubs. Once the band felt it, it took on a life of its own,” the singer-guitarist tells B-Sides & Badlands. “It gave us this early ’90s alternative sound a bit, like an old R.E.M song but with a Tom Petty/Fleetwood Mac spin on it. It was much more a folk song in its original draft, and we might have cut this three times total — but the first take just had a certain charisma that we loved.”
