In | In 1989 Eitzel told ''Unhinged'', "Here - 'We'll waste a thousand years sitting round the kitchen table/Watching the brandy turn into beer/And we can't get out even though we're able'. Stupid line, but there really was a night out when we started drinking brandy and then we got the beer out and drank all that up..."<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> In 2015, Eitzel said, "You know I was playing off the movie ''Miracle On 34th Street'', and it was sort of an answer to that movie. But I had these friends, and there was always a party on 8th Street. I thought a lot about cinema and movies in my songwriting. I thought of characters and actors. Robert DeNiro was a huge influence. ''Raging Bull'', all of those Scorsese movies he was in."<ref>{{cite web | url=https://aquariumdrunkard.com/2015/02/06/mark-eitzel-the-aquarium-drunkard-interview/ | work=aquariumdrunkard.com | date=2015 | author= | title=Mark Eitzel: The Aquarium Drunkard Interview | accessdate=June 16, 2017}}</ref> | ||
