about

Mike - HEYLEON! is not afraid to address serious social problems – I feel like this song raises the integrity level of the CD to 11 – and my respect for Lexy’s songwriting to 12
Elexa - I was thinking about the loss of recorded history when it comes to women’s names, both their given and maiden names. There was a tweet or something that made me think, even if a woman keeps her maiden name, isn’t that just her dad’s name? It made me wonder, when does a woman have her own name unless she completely checks out of this system. The verses, though, reflect a loneliness in a relationship where she’s really an accessory to his life, to his success and legacy.
