{{Cquote|I wrote it sitting around backstage on one of the SP tours in 2008, and it is pretty simple in that the whole song is built around a very driving acoustic guitar, with no drums or bass. When we were playing the song on the [[Spirits in the Sky|Spirits tour]], it was just acoustic plus mandolin and violin, which I really liked because of its bluegrass vibe. In the studio it’s totally changed and now sounds like some kind of gothic Indian orchestra is playing the song with the same original guitar part. I’m pretty surprised by how it has turned out to be so psychedelic – I didn’t expect that but guess it is just where my head is at right now.|author=Billy Corgan|source=MusicRadar interview, October 2009<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.musicradar.com/news/guitars/billy-corgan-we-need-a-lot-of-love-right-now-224718|title=Billy Corgan: "We need a lot of love right now"|website=MusicRadar|first=Joe|last=Bosso|date=October 26, 2009}}</ref>}}
