Just Say Yes (Snow Patrol song)

"Just Say Yes" is a song by British alternative rock band Snow Patrol, released as the single to follow "The Planets Bend Between Us" in October–November 2009, depending on the region. The song, produced by Jacknife Lee, is one of the three new songs, and the lead single from the compilation Up to Now. The lyrics were written by Gary Lightbody and the music was composed by Snow Patrol. "Just Say Yes" has its origins as a song written for pop singer Gwen Stefani, who rejected it. Nicole Scherzinger of the Pussycat Dolls was then given permission by Lightbody to record it for her solo debut album, which was later shelved.

Snow Patrol later took the song back and recorded it for their compilation album Up to Now. The song, having an electronic, synthpop sound, marks a distinct change in the Snow Patrol's sound. Writer Gary Lightbody has called it their most adventurous single to date. The video, directed by Blue Leach, features light effects and projection to bring a trippy, dreamy feel. The song was used in a music campaign for Nokia in the Netherlands. It was also used in the trailer for the 2010 film Leap Year. The city of Derry, Northern Ireland was given permission to use the song in their successful bid to be crowned UK City of Culture 2013.

Just Say Yes (EP)

Just Say Yes is the debut EP by The Narrative featuring six songs and produced by Bryan Russell. It was released independently on 30 August 2008.

Background

"[...] We didn’t have any big ideas for our production and were really just excited about recording the songs we worked on. At that time we were both coming from a place heavily influenced by bands like Death Cab for Cutie and Jimmy Eat World."

The Narrative started the recordings of Just Say Yes on 2007 to 2008 after the band meeting through the Craiglist Ad, in the apartment of Suzie Zeldin. According with Jesse Gabriel, the band took influences of Death Cab for Cutie and Jimmy Eat World to compose the sound of the EP. The band was helped by Bryan Russell in the development of its sound and direction of recordings.
