Nine in the Afternoon

Frontman Brendon Urie in the New Musical Express January 26, 2008: "It's a very positive rock song with a very positive message."

Guitarist Ryan Ross on MTV News: "This is the first song we wrote. It's a song we all wrote together. It's basically about our situation for the past few years, just kind of looking at it all in a good way, and as a positive thing. It's one of the most straightforward songs we've ever had, lyrically. We wanted to have a song people could just get on the first listen. It was one of those spur-of-the-moment songs that came together in a couple of hours. It's just a fun song; it's not really meant to be taken seriously."

The song was first performed publicly at the Virgin Festival 2007 in Baltimore.
