| Islands – Creeper Lyrics | 17 years ago |

"The theme and the music were really composed at the same time and it was an overt attempt, a cynical attempt really, to write a pop song. To say, "O.K. I can fucking do this." On the surface its got hooks and a refrain that'll stick in your head, but also the arrangement is pretty weird and there's no simple structure, strange bridges and stuff. The song was written...it was inspired by our old label. One of the inspirations was a Morrissey song called "Why Don't You Find Out For Yourself" which is just about bad dealings with industry people. And that one is more of a literal take about getting ripped off. I took a more figurative approach to getting..uh..stabbed in the heart and feeling like you knew somebody and having them take advantage of that naive, I guess, unguardness. Because I'm a pretty open person." That is what Nick Thorburn had to say about it.. so.. |
