I think with the first song on the record, I just set off like,
Star Treatment is called the first record.
Did you feel like it was the first tune on the record when you made it?
No, I thought it was the thing I was going to write in order to get to the place I needed to be.
And I think you can hear that in the words in the first verse.
It's kind of about, you know, I think I was watching a lot of films about [G] filmmaking at that time,
and the idea of a song about songwriting seemed [N] interesting.
Well, it also starts with the lyric, which people are already talking about.
Okay, let's talk about this.
Yeah, yeah.
Well, you know, what was it like?
I only wanted to be in the strokes or something.
I'll be a stroke or something like that, right?
Now, that's the kind of thing that most people write as a starting point to something and then
kind of go, that made me laugh.
Now, maybe I should change it.
But you said it, and now everyone's like, going,
Oh, and I think it's a great way to start the record because it's just hooks you in.
Well, I think that's precisely what it was.
It's like, you know, it's what's it's a scrambled
eggs, isn't it?
When I looped back around to move it to something else,
I just couldn't resist, like I'd blunt it.
Totally.
What's important to me about it as well is the music that it sits on top of, like, I think,
make it permissible.
And I think that's also why it got written as well was because of,
it starts and there's this jazzy turnaround that happens.
There's one of those words
that, you know, then sort of make something like that.
I don't know, just gives that like a place.
I wonder how much of the words that you put on this record were overheard or vicarious.
Is that where 4 Out of 5 came from?
Is that the whole,
I think I got a favorable review, 4 Out of [A] 5 and that's unheard of.
To me, it's just the kind of thing you hear in a bar [Ab] somewhere and [N] you just think,
I'm just going to, I've got to work that in somehow.
There's a bitter sweetness.
There's a melancholy to getting 4 Out of 5,
but championing that like it's never been done before.
Because the people that have been in charge of giving the scores are like,
oh, they never give a perfect 100.
Oh, never.
It's impossible.
Nothing's close to perfection.
Yeah, exactly.
Yeah.
Well done.
But for the world's first ever monster truck front flip.
Stop.
Can we talk about that title for a second?
Who came up with that?
Well, the guy who flipped the truck forwards.
But I suppose the thing I'm saying is we're
living in a world where we're flipping monster trucks forwards now.
I think we also like this
idea of everyone playing in a room together like on Pet Sounds.
Like wanted to do that for a long time, but this is not really the time or the place to do it.
Because we've got all these recordings and these sounds that we like going into it.
So it's not like we're going to get in a room and do a live take or something and
that's what it's going to be.
Except with like the last track on there,
like Ultra Cheese was kind of done like that.
Star Treatment is called the first record.
