Black Grape fills the album with a premeditated bounciness. Backed by a sharp electric guitar scale, Shawn Ryder enunciates "Dinnuh's in the cellar, I can smell 'er" with an almost Kurt Cobain-ish seriousness, then shifts into the light-hearted teenage chorus "I wanna get cheeky with ya, I wanna get squeakly inside ya--lying through your teeth for a week!" on "Squeaky."

Around the same time, Weegee entered a short-lived marriage and moved to Hollywood for a few years, where he played bit parts in B-movies and took candid shots of the stars.

The only difference is that, as befits the '90s, the subjects of songs are often fairly ambiguous. "Seems So" details the story of an eerie night-time UFO-ish episode, without revealing much of what actually happened. "Find Our Way" mentions a relationship and its past, but doesn't allow the listener to find out anything other than "Maybe we'll find our way."
