Did You Know?

Interesting facts and trivia about Happy Pills. By Songfacts®.

This is the first single by singer-songwriter Norah Jones, from her fifth album, …Little Broken Hearts. Jones premiered the song on February 28, 2012 via her Facebook page on the SoundCloud and it was released on March 6, 2012.

…Little Broken Hearts was entirely produced by Danger Mouse (real name: Brian Burton) and recorded at Burton's Los Angeles studio during the fall of 2011. The record was co-written by Jones and Burton, with the pair handling the majority of the instrumentals. Jones teamed up with the producer after she contributed vocals to his Rome project with Daniele Luppi.

The song surprised Jones and Burton from the moment they wrote it. "We both were like 'Oh my God, this is awesome' at first and then went away and listened over the weekend, explained Jones. "We didn't know if it fit on the record. But I couldn't stop singing it, and neither could Brian. Eventually we decided it was too much fun, it had to be there."
