Conan says the project is all about rejection.
“Being rejected is the most freeing, incredible thing ever, like continual rejection in life,” Conan told Audacy. “As you get older, you start to realize that like every rejection ever, whether it’s a person or something you wanted to do that didn’t happen, or anything. It’s so scary to be rejected. It’s so scary to fail, and then you do it a bunch of times and you’re like, ‘wait, this is awesome,’ and it’s always pushing you to the right place in life.”
Watch the “Vodka Cranberry” video below and download the album on iTunes.
Conan sings on the track, “Speak up, I know you hate me / Looked at your picture and cried like a baby / Speak up, don’t leave me waiting / Got way too drunk off a vodka cranberry / Called you up in the middle of the night / Wailing like an imbecile / If you won’t end things, then I will.”
