In Their Words: “The word has negative connotations, but I thought it would be interesting to use it in the context of a love song. Sure, you can be blindsided by an attack or caught unprepared by stormy weather. But love also has a funny way of finding you when you least expect it, regardless of whether youâre looking for it or not. With its soaring vocal harmonies, majestic strings and the band firing on all cylinders, this track really embodies and hints at all the sonic elements to come on the album.” — Mark Erelli
