Außerdem ist der Refrain eine Hommage an das 1930 geschriebene Lied „Brother, Can You Spare A Dime“ in dem es heißt: „Say don't you remember, they called me Al It was Al all the time Decades later it's one of my 'go to' albums when I'm depressed. There are just some songs in it that instantly make me feel better, or at least feel as if someone has felt the same way I do. They say losing love is like a window to your heart. Everybody sees you're blown apart. Everybody sees the wind blow. .
