Speaking about "I Want To Be You", Lime Garden’s Chloe Howard said: “"I Want To Be You" was inspired by a very specific memory I have as a 14 year old at my first gig looking at the band playing and thinking, “do I Want to be you or be with you, or do I want both?”. This feeling has continued to raise its head on many occasions in my life, and it’s become quite an obsessive process at times.
“I’m the type of person who can get very deep into something, but now I try to channel that into something more constructive and real, like music and art. Recording this song was an attempt to emulate the feeling of true obsession through sound," she continued.

Bodega's Ben Hozie said, "'Tarkovski' is a pun on the famous Russian director and skiing; I was enamoured by his book 'Sculpting in Time,' but found that many of his professed rules and guidelines for filmmaking were broken by his own filmmaking practices."
"Theory never really gets at what you want and applying theory to the chaotic practice of art making (while still useful and essential) is like skiing down a wild slope." tinyurl.com

"Go Go Go" was inspired by indie bands that Jorja grew up loving, like the Kooks and Bombay Bicycle Club. "I’m in my little alternative bag, but I’ve always kind of been in it," said Jorja. "People might be like, ‘I didn’t expect this’, but I’m like: ‘Well, I would!'" tinyurl.com

"Malinche" refers to the Aztec woman who allied with Hernán Cortés, and was considered a traitor to her people. Chilean artist Alex Anwandter turns this on its head:
"One thing I set out to do with this song was to shift the classical 'evil woman' narrative inherent in the story of La Malinche towards the pervasive, all-knowing, bro-y straight male that actually has ruled our lives for ages. I didn’t have a lack of targets for that, fortunately."
