Comments[edit]

  • Regarding the title, the band has stated that:

Some titles are personal stories, such as "Everything You Do Is A Balloon", which was a realization made long ago in the forest".[1][2]

every time the beat throws in a funky little snare drum roll, a new element is introduced into the song. I think the first thing that's added is a hi-hat choke.

Samples / Lyrics[edit]

  • The guitar piece at the fade out part of the track has been sampled from the song Timeless by John Abercrombie. [3]

Trivia[edit]

An alternate version was played in the trailer for a 2026 Hi Scores 30th Anniversary reissue, uploaded on September 23th.[4]


Videos[edit]

Video featuring footage from a 1963 bicycle safety video called 'One Got Fat'.
