“Ahh Do One, this is one of my favourites on the album and says so much about weird meetings I've had over the years with people in the music industry, it's all based on real experiences," says frontman Chris Reardon. "I remember the whole first verse came to me on the train and I had written the verse guitar riff a few days before and recorded it on an acoustic guitar in my phone. When I met with the guys and showed it to them I remember they were all laughing hysterically, which is always a good sign in PLAIINS, means everyone is super into it and fired up!
"From there we all worked on it and built it up in stages, it's quite a complicated song with weird breaks and flow changes and I think we pulled it off. It really felt like we were all in the zone on all fronts, working on the composition, the lyrics, the vibe and energy. We developed the song further with our producer Manuel Renner in pre-production and then we played this song live quite a lot which really helped. Like doubling the second chorus for example, that wouldn't have happened I'm pretty sure unless we had played it live a lot. Especially a song like this which is just pure energy and driving force. The whole spoken word bit about the Korean market, BTS and Black Pink is all from the original demo from the very first session. That's always nice when that happens, and I think you can hear it. First take, not thinking about it and just hoping that everything lands in the right place, which it did luckily! But yeah, not a lot else to explain lyrically in this one, its all there, my Dad's from England and my Mum's from Hong Kong, you f**k!“
