One of my favorites! I just saw St. Vincent live and she told a story about how she came to write this song: Her friend is an interior designer in NYC and one of her client's was a woman in her 90s and her house hadn't been redone since the 50s so all of the furniture and stuff in her home was all 1950s style. And the woman wanted exact replicas of the furniture and interior, and, as she put it, she wanted it "just the same but brand new".
