About The Thrill (Commentary)

"The Thrill" is the anthem for my nights out
All of my friends, uh, we all happen to be a bit of trouble
And I definitely, I'm a lot of trouble
The song is pretty much an ode to that feeling of knowing that
In the coming hours, in the hours ahead
There's something special that lies, you know, in the danger, the spontaneity

And, I think this song was really much
Very much based on my Lower Eastside moments this summer
And it sounds like that, it sounds scuzzy, and
It sounds fun, it's driving, you know

It's very anthem-y, it just
Feels like that moment at the bar when
That song comes on and everyone is drunk
And we're all singing the same song together, ready for that next moment
Ready for that next move, you know

Life is all about the thrill and that's why I wrote this song
I wanted it to be that song that people sing, you know
In their cars on the way to whatever party or whatever beach
Or, uh, getting to that next place that
You know something really special and memorable could happen

We make some bad decisions the one that we never forget
The ones that stick out like a sore thumb in our minds, you know
Like, it's supposed to be the sound of, of those moments
