Did You Know?

Interesting facts and trivia about Anyone Else But You. By Songfacts®.

The Moldy Peaches were a New York indie group founded by Adam Green and Kimya Dawson. None of their albums sold more than 8,000 copies, and since 2004 Green and Dawson have been pursuing solo careers. Kimya Dawson said of this song in Rolling Stone magazine: "We wrote it during a period in our lives where Adam and I both wanted to find people to be totally crushed-out on. We called them hippies, and we'd walk the streets at all hours of the night looking for hippies. This song was what each of us would sing to our perfect person if we'd met them."

This anti-folk anthem was featured on the Juno soundtrack album, which includes several other of Dawson's songs. It also prominently features at the end of the movie when it's sung by Michael Cera and Ellen Page. The version by the two Juno actors is also included on the soundtrack album.

Green told the New Musical Express January 26, 2008 about his reaction to the song's belated success: "The song came out in 2001, so I didn't expect to have so much fuss over it again now. I was sat in my pajamas one day when I got the call asking if they could use it, then a few months later I'm at the premiere. I think it's, like, the biggest movie in America right now - it's a comedy about teenage pregnancy. It's the #1 soundtrack in the country! It's crazy!"
