“GHV2” Q&A
-
Translations:
-
Why was the album called "GHV2"?
Because it’s to the point. We went through catchy titles, funny titles and witty titles and things like that, but at the end of the day I thought it was really modern and succinct and to the point.

Why were "This Used to Be My Playground" and "Fever" not included on the album?
Oh, I like ‘Fever’ alright. But the thing is they had to have listening power for me. I had to be able to listen to them five times in a row and think this is really good, this is a well written song, it’s really well produced. I can honestly say not all my songs have been, some are better than others, that’s all there is to it. So the ones that I thought really stood the test of time, in terms of well written, well produced, well sung, those are the ones that made it.
