![]() ![]() Lyrically, the song's verses speak in anticipation of a party, building up to the song's high-energy hook "all the windows down, when I'm rolling through your town." The track takes influence from the electronic dance and dubstep genres, featuring a breakdown in the song's bridge. ![]() The instrumental track incorporates the "Woo-hoo!" sample from "Song 2" alongside its primary guitar riff, with new lyrics and music. Enlisting producers Bei Maejor, Matt Squire, and CJ Baran, the instrumental track that incorporated the sample, which was originally envisioned for American singer and songwriter Kesha, was re-written into "Windows Down".īig Time Rush's "Windows Down" was written by Alexander James, Bei Maejor, Damon Albarn, Dave Rowntree, Graham Coxon, Matt Squire, Matthew "Blackbear" Musto, and Mike Posner. Instead of the band's works, Columbia Records purchased an instrumental sample from the English rock band Blur's 1997 " wikipedia:Song 2" for $75,000. Sony ultimately rejected all four members' songs, an action that Glickman has described as "mean", recalling that the situation lead to increased "difficulty" on set for Big Time Rush, with the band members more frequently "butting heads" with creator Scott Fellows and the showrunners, as well as their partners at Sony. According to Big Time Rush actor and close friend of the band Stephen Kramer Glickman, it was apparent that the four musicians "really invested a lot of time" into each of their efforts, particularly Schmidt, who created a song titled " Midnight Somewhere" that received unanimous praise from his bandmates as well as from the cast and crew of the television show. Kendall Schmidt, James Maslow, Carlos PenaVega, and Logan Henderson each wrote a song with a team of their choosing, on time that was not accomodated for and paid by the label. They would then select one of the four tracks to become the desired single. In preparation, the labels approached the four members of Big Time Rush individually, and asked them each to write an "original" song. Nickelodeon and Columbia Records planned for Big Time Rush to release a "hit" single for the summer of 2012, which they planned to promote extensively in pursuit of radio and commercial success. ![]()
