Background
The original version of "Call Me Up" was recorded in the bathroom of a Tommy Bahama in Florida. Grobler explained during a performance in Boston that he was self-conscious about the way the words sounded in the song, "They always sound kind of mumbly." However, he said that he "realized it's a tender love song in a way, and that I wanted the lyrics to feel that way because it almost feels like when you’re whispering words into your lover's ear or something."[5]
