But it was cathartic to write with Jeremy, and looking back it’s actually funny that he was inspired to write a song like this from a happy and stable place.Hey boy I really love the way that you moveĭiggy diggy down Hey boy I really love the way that you move I’d just broken up with someone and actually wasn’t thrilled about diving into a song like this. I listen to it and though I don’t cry, I definitely get emotional. It is the first song I’ve written in years that makes me cry. How could she trust that the same thing wouldn’t happen to us? I wrote this song with Sam as if she were talking to me, explaining that to me - conveying how strongly she felt for me with the reality of her fears. She told me how scary it was to have felt all the things we were feeling, to be in love, to be sure, and to be together for five years and then have it all fall apart. Our connection was undeniable but she needed to take it very slow. We just moved in together in August, but when we first met she had just gotten out of a five-year relationship. JL: This one’s really special to me because it’s written from the perspective of my girlfriend. He plays with a grit that takes the sax to a whole new place for me. Steve has been with us since “One Time,” and when he sent me the loop that became this song, we were immediately off to the races. It’s about knowing something so good is coming and prolonging the inevitable just a bit more to savor the incredible taste of anticipation.
And it’s always a pleasure to play and collaborate with Steve Davit. It’s an extension of songs like “Got It” and “One Time” - and finally brings the sax back.
This will inevitably be one of my favorites to play live. ROZES Enlists Marian Hill, MisterWives & SHAED On New Version Of 'Halfway There' For International… And that’s definitely a good thing, but can also be just the tiniest bit sad…but ultimately positive.
Seeing your ex and remembering why you loved them, but knowing very well you should not be together. Because Jeremy played a bunch of beats and I was like, “I can’t write another sad song, I’m not in the mood!”īut what I love about “Like U Do” is that while its exterior is light and bouncy, it’s definitely anchored in a somewhat wistful reality. I remember coming into the studio, and I must have been in some sort of mood that day. SG: We had been writing a lot of songs, most darker and more somber in tone. She’s so talented, and she gave it that extra sparkle that it needed. Loved bringing in some extra female energy in the form of powerhouse and vibes queen Dounia.
SG: This was really fun to write it’s dark, sexy, and full of pizzaz. I forgot it for a few months and then came back to it with Sam - the beat is so absolutely crazy and out there and slaps you in the face, and we tried to channel that energy in the writing. We cranked the bass on it and had it making a crazy sub sound. JL: This beat started with me and Pasque jamming on the Rhodes at UMPG Studios in L.A. It’s what I love to write melodically, and where my voice feels most natural and comfortable. I tend to gravitate towards the jazzier side of Marian Hill. Samantha Gongol: This is maybe my favorite song off of the EP, and one of my favorites that we’ve written. The relationship was amazing (or was it?) …How much does it matter now that it was amazing? Or bad? Does it matter at all? It’s mystified, it’s wondering, it’s in between. We love how this song isn’t happy or sad. And now it’s a real thing that changed you in so many ways and yet somehow the details are fuzzy. Marian Hill Breaks Down the Dark Romance of Their Was It Not EP: Exclusive.
