The story behind the song

The Format, an indie rock band, was formed by friends Nate Ruess and Sam Means, who had played together since grade school. They chose their name to playfully critique the music industry's tendency to favor a formulaic approach for hit songs. Their sound blends indie, alternative, punk, and folk, with touches of 1960s and 1970s pop. Playing this song might feel like a nod to that independent spirit, a journey through sounds that resist easy categorization.
