actually it’s a very bitter song about my own lack of self discipline; for the longest time i was absolutely co-dependent on those i was in a relationship with. (hence lines like shouldn’t need anyone im just scared of being alone). if you notice in the cities promo shot i tried to “half-smile” so that people knew that the song was about me and not someone from the small town in australia. no one picked up on it.
i picked the name ‘adelaide’ because it sounded better than ‘brenda’ or ‘shenana’. even though jason tate hates this song, max from say anything said it was one of his favorite songs we have ever done, so i feel like it balances out.
