about

Off the Mates' 2007 debut, This Kind of Life. What Olivia said about the song in an interview with Brightest Young Things: This song has a good story. We'd been playing it for about a year and I'd never gotten around to writing a second verse I was happy with, or fleshing out the counter-melody rant at the end of the song. One winter afternoon, I took myself to the Childe Herald (RIP, though I think that was one of, like, two times I ever went in there) with a notebook and my iPod and sat down with a beer to figure out the rest of the lyrics. For whatever reason, this activity attracted the attention of some grizzled regulars and before I know it, there are three barflies singing "I'm, I'm not the jealous type," over and over while I worked out the lyrics over them. I think that easily qualifies as my oddest songwriting experience, but thanks, guys!
