Behind the Song, Vol. 8
Courtney Barnett's "Nameless, Faceless" started life as three different songs. Drake's "In My Feelings" was born of many samples and many female friends. The B-52s' "Rock Lobster" began as a slide on the wall at a run-down Atlanta disco. Those songs and more, traced back to the source.
