About I Don’t Remember in brief

Summary I Don't Remember“I Don’t Remember” is a song by Australian alternative rock band Powderfinger. The song was written by the band’s lead singer, Bernard Fanning, and influenced by bassist John Collins. It made its radio debut on 9 July 2007 on Australian radio stations, and was subsequently released as a single and digital download on 4 August 2007 in Australia. The single charted poorly, reaching number 42 on the ARIA Singles Chart. The music video for the song received critical acclaim, especially for the parodies it contained. Many elements of the video were a parody of children’s television presenter Yumi Stynes and the band for which Fanning is the lead singer. The video was also nominated for ARIA Awards for best music video in 2007 and 2008, but did not win any awards for the three songs it was nominated for in that year.

The track is about reconciling difficulties and arguments, rather than shifting the blame. It was recorded in Los Angeles during pre-production for Dream Days at the Hotel Existence. It contains a simple acoustic riff, similar to several songs on previous albums including Vulture Street. In the second verse, Fanning reiterates that he feels pain in the mistake that was made, when he says: “I found my heart and it broke like glassI made that mistake that I’ll never surpass” The song is played in the key of Bb, with the song leading off with Bb’s relative minor, G minor. The guitars are all tuned down one step, while the guitar finger positioning is played as though in C major.
