On the songs: the change
'The Change', I really like this one. This is a song that came out as we were in pre-production too. It was an idea that Tim had from a long time ago. It sounded a lot more different, it was slower. Tim - the bass player - and I were roommates in our studio experience. We had two apartments and everyone had a roommate. So, yeah, we were in there and he put it up. We were looking for something to start to write a song, and I heard that one, and he was just going through, and I was like, 'uh, what's that? That one!' right away. I really liked that one and I had the melody for the verse right away. It was funny because we were writing in our apartment and the other guys were writing in the other apartment. And in the next day we came together in the rehearsal space and both ideas worked together at the same time. Like, two different guitar parts and the verses were like two completely different things that we matched together and worked like this cool, happy accident, so that was fun. I love that song. I love that the chorus, like the main part of the chorus, doesn't have any lyrics, it's just like and outcry. And that's different for me. It's fun to sing
