like that tells me more about the kind of couple you are the kind of dude you are and how you really must be heartbroken we also do this a lot in a lot of songs where one person says something super lame and then the other person strongly agrees with it like i am also that way

You're like, I was going to do that too.

I think I would have taken the air out of it because there's so much tension between these two guys that I think... What are other references?

I mean, we're each giving like 110% on each line.

Well, it would have been nice to just see our young faces, you know, etched in time.

Well, just to talk about the beat of how this was made.

So a record player was plugged into the BR-8, which is a eight-track digital recorder.

Basically, I would find a speed that I liked as the loop of it and then record and just try to keep recording until I got the exact loop recorded.

loop it on the BR-8, and that would be one track.

Then I would take drums, listen to it, match the speed of the drums to that sample.

On Techniques 1200, you could go back and forth on plus and minus, and then just get it to the right volume.

So you'd pick breakbeats from a breakbeat album,

And then after you would get all of the samples for the song, get the timing right for everything in the BRA, which is a ridiculous way to do it.

But then you would compress that all down, then that would be on one track, and then we would do all of our lyrics with the remaining seven tracks, if anyone's interested in that type of shit.
