Spanish is my first language and singing in Spanish and writing in Spanish feels very, very personal to me, so to be able to take these songs from this extraordinary songwriter and interpret them in Spanish is important. It wasn’t hard to get into it and to convey that. So that was my approach - I was like, “Okay, I’m gonna live in these lyrics.” I wanted to live in those feelings of little triggers and think about those feelings when a person gives you a little look or when you’re trying to decipher what they’re doing to you. It’s not about how tuned or beautiful the voice is, it’s about the feeling for me. He’s an amazing rock & roll singer and songwriter, but when he sings these types of ballads, he really knows how to get in there. To me, that’s the most special thing about him. I was inspired by that and how he delivered such emotion. I could feel his breath, his urgency, his desire. When he does songs like this, it’s so much about the feeling. As a fan and as a listener, what I love is the way he sings. It was a super treat to get to sing “Little Triggers.” I think it’s the only ballad on the record, so when Sebastian brought the idea to me, I was like “Hell yeah.” I love all of Elvis’ songs - his love songs, his lust songs.
