Did You Know?

Interesting facts and trivia about One More Year. By Songfacts®.

This deep funk tune came out of Kevin Parker's realization that we're all stagnating and doing exactly the same thing while the problems of the world are getting worse by the day. Do you remember we were standing here a year ago? Our minds were racing and time went slow If there was trouble in the world, we didn't know If we had a care, it didn't show Parker told Apple Music: "Our life is crazy, but where is it going? We won't be young forever but we sure do live like it. Our book needs more chapters. Our time here is short, let's make it count."

Asked by NME if he had climate change in mind, Parker replied: "It's irresponsible as a human being to ignore some of the things that we're faced with at the moment, and that's the burden of humans now."

This is the opening track of The Slow Rush, which contains a theme of the passage of time. Speaking with The London Times, Parker broke down the meaning of the album title. "If you stare at the clock, it's crawling along, but as soon as you get distracted, that's when time overtakes you," he said. "As humans we could do so much, but somehow time always gets the better of us. How does that happen?"
