• In their song "Shut The Catflap," the Bondesson sisters of Baskery (Stella, Greta and Sunniva) envision themselves as cats, looking for a way inside. "Throw A Bone" is about "being the dog in a relationship," according to Sunniva. "It balances, like Zen," she said in a Songfacts interview. "Sitting there waiting, and you know you want to be the cat and be the sassy one, but you do all the hard work. It's a lot of waiting."
• One of Baskery's most popular tracks, fans have come up with interpretations the band didn't envision. "I'm very proud of those lyrics because it's very straightforward, but it has layers underneath and I know people have interpreted much more than I intentionally meant," Sunniva said. "That's powerful."
  
  She added: "I think that you have an emotion, and when you start writing you try to make sense for yourself. But in the end, you need to translate for your audience and your own mind is not the same as the audience, so you find a way where you can connect.
  
  And with that song, I felt like I used very few words and said a lot. It starts with, 'Cat on my tongue with things to say.' It's a lot of sacrifice in the lyrics that keeps it short and sweet, but it still has a powerful message."
