The former title is the name of another one of my favorite manga and soon to be anime. The idea came about when we talked about pop music and Taylor Swift. We joked about writing a pop song for obvious reasons. [/size]

The solos in Taylor Swift songs suck, so I asked Chris to write a Taylor Swift song with a facemelting solo. His one stipulation was the lyrics had to be about an ex. The lyrics started as a sort of travelogue of a trip I took to Ljubljana with a friend, which is where the name comes from, but the song wanted something else. Chris told me to write it all he asked himself was, “What would Taylor Swift do?” A fair question in all situations, WWTSD? Probably not a harmony guitar outro lol[/size]
