Story Behind The Song
Taking hit single "Hindsight" as a prime example, this single sets up the listener for the rest of the EP. It is very radio friendly, upbeat, danceable, and it's the perfect song to introduce this group to new listeners. "Hindsight" has catchy verses and is loaded with hooks, along with incredible lyrical parlays and instrumentation that is divine. The story line with this single (and yes, there is a story behind every song) revolves around growing up and looking back at the glory years of life passed; perfectly summed up in the title "Hindsight".

Lyrics
Moving on
I can't seem to stay in one place long
But I never want to go far away from home
A growing contradiction
Time
Has a way of sneaking up behind
And one day you'll wake to find
Somehow overnight
Twenty years have gone
Remember how it was
We dreamt all through the daylight
We stayed out after midnight
We drank all of the moonshine
We made everything alright
We danced out in the moonlight
We never wanted to grow up
Someday
When we are old and grey
We'll remember how it was
In the days when we were young
We'll listen to this song
Come on now sing along
We dreamt all through the daylight
We stayed out after midnight
We drank all of the moonshine
We made everything alright
We danced out in the moonlight
We never wanted to grow up
Hindsight, looking back on life
Everything was right
Glory days were golden
We were in our prime
We were just two young hearts beating in time
In hindsight I know I can't go back to youth, but I want to.
We dreamt all through the daylight
We stayed out after midnight
We drank all of the moonshine
We made everything alright
We danced out in the moonlight
We never wanted to grow up
