I'm In a Sexy French Depression - Commentary

[00:01.07] I'm in a sexy French depression
[00:01.72] We've been wanting to do a song long time about sexy depression
[00:04.07] And originally, it was supposed to be a Lana Del Rey type pop song
[00:06.74] 'Cause Lana Del Rey, there's literally a music video where she jumps off a cliff
[00:10.39] But it's like with an Instagram filter
[00:12.42] And this idea in general of women being sexy sad
[00:15.45] That's something I've been fascinated with for a long time
[00:17.73] You know I fascinate with someone like Marilyn Monroe
[00:20.02] Like oh she was so tragic and beautiful and sad
[00:22.36] And it's like Marilyn Monroe was consistently late to set
[00:24.67] And didn't know her lines
[00:25.86] And she was basically like the Lindsay Lohan of the '50s
[00:28.22] But we, we (We sexualize it)
[00:31.18] We sexualize it
[00:31.83] We idolize it
[00:32.50] We really like this idea of women being powerless and disenfranchised
[00:35.44] And that being sexy
[00:37.43] And so we tryna think of a cool genre
[00:39.88] But the song was called "I'm so sexy sad" (I remember)
[00:43.40] And I left the room and you were talking about I'm so sexy sad
[00:46.40] And I went to the bathroom (Yes)
[00:48.82] And I came back and you were like wait a minute
[00:50.92] Wait a minute, wait a minute
[00:51.93] Just listen, just wait a minute (Yes)
[00:53.90] And then, it was like it's gonna be in French
[00:56.89] And it's gonna be about sexy French depression
[00:59.37] And you were looking at me like this is gonna be completely nuts
[01:02.46] And you're not gonna like it but I loved it
[01:03.95] Yes, and originally the whole song was gonna be in French
[01:06.12] And you were like what we doing?
[01:07.37] And so we didn't do the whole song in French
[01:08.82] No, didn't somebody give the note that part of the reason you can't do that
[01:11.72] Is because people watch everything on their phones now
[01:14.64] They literally won't be able to read the (Yes, that is a good point)
[01:17.35] Yes, that's a good point
[01:19.12] And also it's a lot
[01:20.95] It's a lot better to vary it up especially when you get to the bridges
[01:23.48] That are all in French
[01:24.64] It makes it standout more that I bought a book
[01:26.96] About John Wayne on Amazon
[01:28.76] That's a lot funnier when that's in French but the verses isn't
[01:33.60] And you saying this in the studio where the Orchestra had some time
[01:37.33] That was so fun and I remember I was a little hot that day
[01:40.97] But it kind of works for this (Totally works)
[01:43.47] Yeah it's like that
[01:44.36]
