That something was track 11 on the band’s chart-topping and Grammy-nominated 2020 album “Nightfall.”
We have wine and beer and whiskey.'"
Then, in a matter of minutes, they’d written “Wine, Beer, Whiskey.”
“Lines were just flying out of people,” Sweet recalls.
“People just kept on throwing out things, and we were literally bouncing lyrically off each other.”
Now you know how this undeniably merry song was written but what exactly does it mean?
The rest of the tune follows suit, turning various kinds of alcoholic beverages into loyal pals.
Although it seems stark, this contrast is intentional.
“There was a lot of discussion about where that goes and does it fit.
That’s the privilege of making a record.
you could do what you want and let people go on the journey with you.
This song was just part of it.”
