Going Blonde

An excerpt from a now deleted blog post from Juliana on her official site in 2008:

“I don’t want nothing means I want something,” that’s a little English lesson for you all. Just in case anyone was confused about what the double negative (“don’t want nothing”) meant, literally. When I am grammatically incorrect in a song, it’s usually on purpose. Like when I sing, “Don’t say nothing” in the song “Oh,” I really mean “don’t say anything.”

Joe Keefe played the lead rock guitar on here. He’s a brilliant guitar player and totally unknown. He takes direction really well. I would tell him, like, “play something kind of repetitive and masturbatory and fast and super duper Rawk here” ( the end of “Going Blonde”) or “Play something trippy and British here (“New Waif”)” and he would give me exactly what I wanted, every time. It was great for when I was too lazy to play guitar, or just couldn’t be bothered with it during the “Made In China” sessions.
