SONGS

Singer/Guitarist Nick Young talks about the meaning behind the songs of A.i.'s 2007 release, Sex & Robots.

Hey Now!: No other song can really kick start this album other then "Hey Now!" It's about girls, cars and sex. I think if u could put pornography and NASCAR in a blender and sell it, "Hey Now!" would be the name on the bottle.

Tell Me U Luv Me: We were inspired, while writing this song, to use dolls for our artwork; her doll-like "Tell Me U Luv Me" voice whispers in my ear as her plastic shiny skin brushes up against me on the dance floor as "we try to find the dirty words to say." One of my favorite messages in this song is that "we live in times of wars we didn't make." I am sick of our government's agenda being shoved down our throats. The song ends with the line, "one kiss will seal our fate." Hopefully it's a good kiss...

Don't Run: This song is kind of an anthem for L.A. girls that always think they're just too cool 4 school...u can run, but u can't hide...so why bother running? I believe that there's a spot in a girls mind, just like on her body, that when properly stimulated, results in a divine awakening. George Lucas couldn't have said it any better when Luke Skywalker used the force to blow up the Death Star by shooting his laser beam into a tiny hole. "I just wanna get inside your dirty lil mind"

Far Away: The lyrics in "Far Away" deal with past memories of being on "cloud 9" with someone and thinking nothing could ever tear u apart...and then feeling equally distant from them soon after. I've dated girls in the past that have been able to switch themselves on and off at the drop of a dime... it's not a good feeling. But I also think its just human nature for people to either grow together or apart over time. My favorite poet is probably W.B. Yeats because of the way he explores how our minds deal with memory in fragments and echoes of our past experiences. I believe that our memory can carry all sorts of emotional energy and help shape us into who we are today. "until u return my way...you're always so far away"

Airline 2 Happiness: We wrote "Airline 2 Happiness" and "The Crush" together with our friend DJ Brian Vasquez. In a psychic way, he had named both of them before they had lyrics. "Airline 2 Happiness" is about someone that's been through a lot and is now returning home to his or her loved one. The music has this feeling of lifting up and taking off into the open sky. When my Dad heard it, it reminded him of coming home from World War II. We actually have another version of this song with different lyrics that reference Iraq. All three of us are members of MoveOn.org and want our troops to return home safely! "It's time to come home. Enough of this heartache. I'm ready to go. So lift me up." "Arms wrapped round my destination...home."

C'mon C'mon: Just because you have an amazing one-night-stand with someone doesn't always mean you want to have breakfast with them the morning after. The bass line in the beginning always reminds me of revving up your motorcycle, hitting the road solo, and leaving her draped under the white sheets like a crime scene. "After the love, made a mess in the sheets. When we touched last night, it was like a dream...but in the mornin, I can't live inside your world."

The Crush: "The Crush" is about struggling with addiction. Whether it be a girl or a drug, you can't think of anything else 'till you have that fix! The music comes in pulses and waves...and once u take that pill, you're on for the ride. "We won't let you break the promise you make."

Maria on the Moon: Early astronomers used to think that the dark spots on the moon were oceans. They called it "Maria on the Moon" because Maria is plural for Mare, which means sea. I love the idea of "oceans on the moon." I imagine traveling through the high seas as "waves crash over me" in search of my love...as she "sends her light down" from above.

Let Your Hair Down: This is one of the first songs Milen, Zack and I wrote together as a band. I didn't realize until after the song was finished that "Let Your Hair Down" was a saying dating back to the 17th century when women had to wear their hair pinned up to be proper. Letting it down meant to be free. It's about falling in love. "A vision of u trapped me and I've thrown away the key."

Kiss the Sky: To "Kiss the Sky", to me, is to breathe in the beauty that surrounds us when we're in nature. It's about having a vision...an epiphany of feeling alive. "Full of life, I'm a sage, or a fool in the rain."

Moment of Silence: Getting lost in the lights of her eyes...falling deeper...deeper...into this lullaby as "we lay awake dreaming in silence."
