Back Story

On "Ordinary World", Mike TV took all of the songs involving drugs or that had drugs working behind the scenes to make the album. Similarly, in "Selling Out & Going Home" Mike constructed the CD of songs about relationships and love. To paint a portrait showing that love is not always pure bliss or brutal agony: "I wanted to make a record that was as honest about relationships as I had been been about my drug use."
