"Don't Look Back" started as a completely, uh, different sounding record
Uhm, sonically it was completely different
Uhm, but I loved, I loved the idea of
Kinda being upfront and honest at the onset of the relationship
I remember watching this, this stand-up comedy series, and
And of the, uh, one of the comedians kinda made a funny point
But it's so true
And, it was that, you know at the very beginning of a relationship
You know, he'd wish that women would be real
If you're crazy just tell me you're crazy, I can accept that
'Cause everything is okay at the very beginning
You could tell 'em you're liar and you're a cheater
And somehow at the very beginning, for being honest, you get points
Maybe not that extreme but I think you get the point
Uhm, just being upfront and honest
Really goes a long way at the very top of, of a relationship
And, I guess that's why I love this song because
It really is a, it really is a warning
Uhm, that as much as, well in this case, I love you
I'm liable to do something that might hurt you
And, should I do that then I need you to get as far away from me as possible
And don't even think of coming back
'Cause most likely I'll just keep hurting you so
I think, you know, as crazy as it may sound
It's commendable just to be honest
And I approached it, Happy Perez who I co-produced the song with
Was, you know, completely understood, you know
The, the, the goal on what we were trying to accomplish
Uhm, almost like it was, we were scoring this, you know, this film, so
Uhm it really is a, it really is a story, uhm and explanation and then it kind of
It kind of segues into, uh, my favorite part of the song which is
Uhm, a cover of "Time of the Season"
Which, uh, has been one of my favorite records of all time
And, uh, I just kinda gave it, you know, I gave it, you know, a sound that
I felt was, was, you know, indicative of my perspective and my sensibilities
It's a great story if you follow it, it was meant to be very dynamic, yeah
