Eitzel told ''Unhinged'', "The drive from San Francisco to L.A is weird: it's an irrigated desert. The left side is all irrigated, the right side is the real thing: barren dry mountains. So it's this phony Californian situation, which California is wonderful for. I love California for disgusting, wasteful conflicts like that. And then I sang the song around a romance I once had. First time I drove down it, I knew I had to write about it because I'm really into '5', not that I'm a silly numerologist, but five is the martyr's number. I love the number."<ref>{{cite web | url=http://americanmusicclub.com/index.php?title=Articles:Unhinged_-_Winter_1989 | work=Unhinged | date=Winter 1989 | author=Drew | title=American Music Club | accessdate=March 27, 2018}}</ref> | |||
