In a recent interview, Mat Kearney had this to say about Here We Go:
"Here We Go is like, was one of the oldest songs and it, I felt like it was a real, it became like a sonic identity that, we wanted to go after, the record which was to make it big and epic, and kind of this old 80's, like early 80's war U2 record. Like I feel like some of those elements we touched on was like, 'Wow, this really works.' And it was actually the first song where I really started playing all the electrics, which was big for me. I haven't done that tons, but I think I end up playing most of the music, so, which has a simple quality to it, you know I'm not like a very profound player but I found my identity, and I found my inability to be something that I liked a lot. Made it visceral and refined. So, Here We Go is really, is this kind of crying out. It could be a break up song or it could be a plea to not be a breakup song. Somewhere in there."
