The story behind the song

This song was inspired by frontman Black Francis's experiences while scuba diving in the Caribbean, specifically recalling a tiny fish persistently following him underwater. Guitarist Joey Santiago composed the song's distinctive guitar line, describing it as a "lazy arpeggio that instantly sounded strong and hooky." It's a track that embodies the band's alternative rock sound and their dynamic shifts. At its heart, it plays like a dive into the surreal, capturing a sense of wonder and perhaps a touch of unsettling disorientation.
