![]() How was it that Meghan came to write the songs? Had she written the songs and you guys just chose them? Or did she write with you or for you? We really just thought the song was really relatable.” In ‘Sledgehammer,’ we love the fact that she talks about gow you feel when you’re around that special person – like, you can’t help but get excited and have your pulse doing double time. People really relate to some of the things that she writes. And, also, it’s just an accessible concept, which Meghan’s really good at doing – working around something. And we just loved it the second that we heard it. She wrote three of the songs on our album. “Um, well, we actually were presented the song by Meghan Trainor because she actually wrote the song. Speaking of “Sledgehammer”: It did really well, and I was wondering what you think it was about that song that connected so well? It’s great to know that we’re doing something right, you know? That’s really awesome – it’s such an honor. I know ‘Miss Movin’ On,’ ‘Bo$$,’ ‘Sledgehammer,’ too, eh?” Um, if I’m correct – three singles, three gold records so far? You guys have had an awful lot of success with singles. But I feel it was definitely worth it, because people are very happy with it, as well as we are very pleased with it, so …” So much goes into it and, yeah, it was just a process. And like you say, it’s about finding the right songs, plus there’s so many different things – it’s not just us, but also the label. “I think it was the fact that we just wanted to make it as perfect as possible. I want to talk just a little bit more about your fans in a minute, but can you speak more specifically about what took so long with the album? Was it the idea of finding the right songs, or did you look … Because without them, we wouldn’t be anywhere near where we are right now.” Our fans, man, we owe it all to them, seriously. ![]() And for us to be able to, I guess, also have the No. 1 on iTunes, and you pushed Taylor Swift’s “1989” out of the top spot. “And, um, yeah, one of the key things for us is girl power and just encouraging girls to believe in themselves and love each other and love themselves, and just embracing, like, self-love, which we incorporated within the album. Which I think that we incorporated within the album and this new record really reflects on that. And that left us time to grow – not just musically, but as people. But I’m kind of glad … just to give us time to think about what it was that we really wanted to talk about. Our “Better Together” EP was really supposed to be an album. “Um, we’re really pleased with the album, just because we’ve been working on it for such a long time. You know what? Tell me about the new album: It finally came out in February – what were you looking to do and what do you think of the results? ‘Cause we’ve been performing a bunch of these songs from the album, so it’s pretty refreshing for us, and refreshing for the fans, as well. It’s been great we’ve gotten great responses. We’ve been touring for almost two weeks now, it seems like, but it’s gone by really fast. ![]() NORMANI KORDEI: “Um, it’s really going amazingly.
