In Their Words: "This was one of my favorite songs to track — the groove is just so thick. I sent out a rough demo to the guys, and when Pat walked into rehearsal with that bass line, everything fell perfectly into place. It reminds me of that great Tom Waits quote: 'I like beautiful melodies telling me terrible things.' When we play it live and the crowd starts moving, I can’t help but smile and think, 'Do they know what they’re dancing to?'" — Reed Turner
