Facts:
-The title of the album reflects how fastly things were moving along for the band
-The album was recorded over a period of 4 weeks in March/April 2005 @ Gallery of Carpet.
-Bob plays ebow on Unsafe Safe and Weeping Willow. What? You don't know what an ebow is? That's cause you don't hang with the kool kidz. Google it.
-Chris and Darren both play bells on various songs. Bells are cool. Seriously.
-Chris did the CD design. He's multi-talented like that.
-All Hush Sound songs are written by Greta, Bob or Greta and Bob except for "The Market", which is written by Bob and Chris.
-Dahkishambahdah...whaaa? No worries if you have no idea what that means, we didn't either. Here's Greta's explanation for it:
"You are the 'dark ocean bottom' turned into 'dakishambada' in the studio, which became a term synonomous with 'brewski'. The funny thing was that everyone used the term 'dakishambada' for the few weeks in the studio and Bob had no idea what it meant. Good times. "
-"Weeping Willow" was written by Greta the night a close family friend of hers who had cancer was taken off life support.

Facts:
-The album was produced by Sean O'Keefe and Patrick Stump. Sean O'Keefe is the awesome guy who is Fall Out Boy's producer, but if you google him you'll see that he's also the former NASA administrator. Seriously.
-Patrick Stump has guest vocals on the song "Don't Wake Me Up", he also attempted to do mouth trumpet on "We Intertwined".
-We chose "Sweet Tangerine" as our site name cause it's about fruit. No wait, it's about stalking. Uhm. Yea. =|
-When recording "Lions Roar", an actual circus took place in the studio. Honest.
-"Lighthouse" is a ghost story. Greta actually didn't want to record it, cause it is a sad song for her but the boys convinced her to do it and she now thanks them for that. Here's how Greta explains the song:
"Lighthouse is an allegory to represent how it feels when one has nowhere to turn for support. I developed images and a narrative to explain how it feels when one is walking from one disaster to find shelter, only to find nothing."
-Greta wrote "Don't Wake Me Up" in June of 2005 during finals time, cause she didn't want to study. It's also the song the band has worked on for the longest period of time.
-"We Intertwined" is based on a dream Bob had and it contains a piano part that Chris came up with that the band loved and tried to use in other songs before but it never really fit.
-Chris isn't actually on "Lighthouse" and "You are the Moon" because an upright bass was used on those songs. Chris actually has the talent to play one, but for some reason they brought in Brian to play it. Seriously Chris, you can play an upright. It ain't too hard. But it's just easier to get a fretless electric bass. You need one, yo. Seriously. Please?
-When writing the songs, the aim of Greta and Bob was to tell stories, but there are some songs that are based on actual events. Like, “Out through the Curtain” is about how Bob was afraid to go out of the house for a while cause he was afraid the bigger kids would beat the crap out of him (his words, not mine. seriously).
-On "Where We Went Wrong", Bob does the main vocals, and the towards the end, Greta sings the "Hey come back to me"s and Darren does the part that echoes Greta"Hey/Baby come back to me" and Chris does the "ba ba-da..."s.
-"Dark Congregation" may sound like an upbeat song, but if you listen to the lyrics you'll realize that it's actually a sad song, about the the death and burial of Greta's best friend who passed away last year. I had no idea what the song was about from just listening to it, and I ended up crying when I first read the lyrics.
-The inspiration for "Wine Red" is pretty cool, so I won't attempt to explain it myself and ruin the story. Here's what Greta said about the song:
"The song "Wine Red" is about the destruction of something that seems to beautiful to exist, much like the Garden of Eden is said to be. There was a story at that time of a viscious murder or a young girl whom we had all met and that is what inspired the line "the death of beauty". Also, when I wrote the song, I had been reading greek mythology as well as studying creation stories of many different faiths, mainly studying the Genesis stories of the Christian faith (out of curiosity rather than religion). Allusions to those stories are woven into the song."
-Bob, being the awesome person he is, answered a few questions regarding song chords in the Q and A on the official site. So here are the chords, straight from the Bob man himself:
Where We Went Wrong: "d7 min, c7 dom, f maj, g7 dom... chorus is B flat maj, b flat min, F maj, D 7 minor, G7 dom, C 7, F"
Momentum: "on the album its D A# D A# G A# G A# in the verse and then the chorus is D A# G then the bridge is FGD... thats the simplified version"
