... that the Camping in Alaska song "C U in da Ballpit" was written in two hours after the band realized they rented too much time in the studio?

Source: "But that song, when we were 17, we had bought $900 worth of studio time to do our first album. We had extra time after everything, because it went smoother than we thought. And so we had like half a day left and we’re like, OK, well, let’s not waste it. So I wrote a song in two hours on a notebook and then we jammed it out."

ALT1: ... that despite "C U in da Ballpit" being Camping in Alaska's best known song, the band says they all hate it? Source: Well, something that everybody online who digs into us knows is that we hate that song. [Laughs]

Song titles ignore stylisations per MOS:TITLECAPS; for the hook, the song should be rendered "C U in da Ballpit". I'll leave it to you to update the article and the hook (most likely ALT0, as opinions can change).--Laun chba ller 14:56, 29 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Launchballer: I've made the fixes as requested. I also think ALT0 is the better of the two. ThaesOfereode (talk) 16:15, 29 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
