[[Glenn Eichler]] [https://www.pastemagazine.com/articles/2016/10/youre-standing-on-my-neck-the-life-and-death-of-th.html told Paste] that “My recollection is that we already knew and liked Splendora’s music because one of our producers, [[Cindy Brolsma]], was actually in Splendora as their cellist. We asked them if they’d like to write and record a theme song and gave Janet Wygal some suggestions for lyrics they might want to incorporate, like ‘Excuse me’ and ‘You’re standing on my neck,’ and they took it from there."
