The original title for “In Control” was “Anthem for a Thirty-Something Year-Old Has-been.” The heroine yearns for the days when she had the courage and confidence to take on the world, while slowly fading away and being forgotten. The line in the second verse, “what happened to the punks and stoners that I knew before?” is a callback to my song “I Know A Place” from my first album Lovebug.
