Stay What You Are

Stay What You Are is the third album release from the American rock band Saves the Day, released in 2001.

Background

In an issue of CMJ New Music Report dated May 2000, it was announced the band had signed to Vagrant, due to the success of Through Being Cool (1999).

Composition and recording

While on tour, in March 2000, the band got into a van accident that almost ended the band's career. The van accident was somewhat of an inspiration for the band's songwriting. "As Your Ghost Takes Flight" is about a friend's heroin addiction.

The band played on a few Warped Tour dates before heading into the studio. The band worked with producer Rob Schnapf. Conley escribed Schnapf as "a really mellow, laid back guy. Him being relaxed just made for a nice, creative environment in the studio." At the time of the recording, Saves the Day consisted of Chris Conley, Dave Soloway, Ted Alexander, Eben D'Amico and Bryan Newman and was produced by Rob Schnapf who previously produced Elliott Smith and Beck. The album was a shift from the band's previous power chord-based sound and featured more intricate guitar work and arrangements.

See You (song)

"See You" is the fourth UK single by Depeche Mode recorded at Blackwing Studios, and the first Depeche Mode single written by Martin Gore. The single was released on 29 January 1982 and was later included on the band's second album A Broken Frame. The single launched a small world tour, with extra band member Alan Wilder, although he did not contribute to the song or the album. There are three versions of "See You"—the 7" single version (3:55), the album version (4:34), and an extended 12" version with a longer intro (4:50). The "Extended Version" and the "Album Version" are almost the same. The "Album Version" fades out about 20 second before the 12" remix does.

The B-side to "See You" is "Now, This Is Fun." The extended version has a longer bridge in the middle and an extended ending, with Dave Gahan sometimes shouting "This is funny!" instead of "This is real fun!" Before release "Now, This Is Fun" was called "Reason To Be".

The video for "See You" was directed by Julien Temple.It was also the first video with Alan Wilder. He can be seen briefly playing the keyboards and he also appears in several photo booth strips. The first part of the video was filmed at Hounslow railway station in London. At the beginning of the video there is a speakerphone, much like the one on the cover of Music for the Masses, released five years later. The band did not like the video, and it did not show up on the 1985 video compilation Some Great Videos, which included the band's videos up to 1985 except the A Broken Frame singles and "Get the Balance Right".

M-Flo

M-Flo (エムフロウ, Emu Furō, stylized as m-flo) is a Japanese hip hop group consisting of producer and DJ Taku Takahashi and emcee Verbal.

Former member Lisa left the group in 2002 to pursue a solo career, and the remaining members then started the M-Flo Loves... project working different vocalists for each song over three albums, including the likes of Bonnie Pink, Koda Kumi and BoA.

Their mainstream success and critical acclaim established them as the most iconic and influential hip-hop production team in Japan with success throughout Asia.

Taku Takahashi and Verbal also started successful side-projects outside of M-Flo, such as the Teriyaki Boyz and Global Astro Alliance collaborating with international producers and artists such as Kanye West and the Beastie Boys.

In 2008 the group announced a hiatus, stating that each member would be focusing on their respective side projects. In 2012 the group ended their hiatus with the release of Square One on March 14, 2012.
