Death Cab For Cutie's frontman and principal songwriter Ben Gibbard married actress and musician Zooey Deschanel in September 2009 at a ceremony near Seattle. Unsurprisingly, fans wanted to know how much of Codes and Keys was written about his new wife. In an interview with Jam! Music prior to the release of the album, Gibbard responded to that very question. He said: "There are moments on the new album - like 'Stay Young, Go Dancing' or the first verse of 'Monday Morning' - that are about my wife. I love Double Fantasy. I love Ram. I love marriage records. And I'm very aware that given the fact that I'm married to a person who is very well known, the assumption is going to be I'm referring to Zooey. Sometimes I am, and sometimes I'm not. That's just something people need to deal with in their own way." The couple announced their separation in November 2011 after two years of marriage.
