Did You Know?

Interesting facts and trivia about Fresh Eyes. By Songfacts®.

Andy Grammer sings here about those little moments when you rediscover how beautiful the special person in your life is. He was inspired to pen the song came when he emerged from the bathroom in the morning and saw his half awake singer-songwriter wife Aijia. She was rapping Big Sean's hit "I Don't F--k With You," unaware her husband could hear her.

Grammer explained to People he wrote the song about continually seeing Aijia through new eyes as he learns about her endearing quirks and idiocies. "I don't know if you can force it or if there's anything you can do to make it happen. I think if you pick someone that you love, you will continuously fall in love with them," he said. "I know that sounds almost horribly cheesy, but that is what has to happen if you're gonna make a relationship work for a long time," he added. "You have to keep learning new things that are interesting about this person or having them catch you off guard and have these little moments of intense appreciation."

As a onetime street musician, Andy Grammer spent a lot of time with the homeless, and in this song's music video we see the singer and his team mixing with the residents of Union Rescue Mission in Los Angeles. Grammer admitted to ABC Radio that he was apprehensive about using a video to comment on social issues. "Anytime that you do something like this… you have to push through this weird zone of, 'Is this OK? Is this a horrible idea? Am I gonna look like an idiot? Am I gonna try and profit off of people who don't have anything?'" Ultimately Grammer profited from the experience as much as the Mission residents did. "It was by far the best day of my year. It's unbelievable," he said. "I hope that everybody watches it and feels something like what I felt that day."
