The second single off of Japanese Breakfast's sophomore album “Soft Sounds From Another Planet” is the second cover of the song “Day 6,” originally found on the Japanese Breakfast album “June.” The song later reappeared in a new form on Little Big League’s second LP as “Boyish.”
In an interview with NPR, Michelle (the lead singer, guitarist, songwriter, and producer behind Japanese Breakfast) had this to say about the song
"This song started as “Day 6” on June, was revamped and appeared on Little Big League’s Tropical Jinx, and then revamped again for this record. I just hated the way we arranged and produced it in Little Big League, and I still really loved the chorus lyrics and the way the melody lifted, so I wanted to rearrange it. Craig is wonderful at coming up with vocal harmonies. I always joke that Craig sings like a Disney Prince, his voice is just so full and objectively beautiful, I think it makes my squawk sound a bit prettier when we sing together.
Actually, I think we arranged and recorded this mostly in one day. We tried to redo the drums and vocals, but we were so attached to the original that it just didn’t sound right when we put the new versions in. So the vocal is actually the scratch take, just one take I think recorded on a Beta 57."
An 8-bit version of the song from an online role-playing game named "Japanese Breakquest" (which was based on the album) is available to download upon completion of the game.
