The song was not eligible for any Grammy Award in the General Field.

Background edit

At first, I tried to do it by using a guitar pick, and it didn't sound right. I had to go online and Google a ukulele lesson and noticed they're not using picks at all; it's more of a flamenco style. Once I got that down, then it sounded like the real deal.[4]

—Lead guitarist Jimmy Stafford, on having to learn to play ukulele as requested by lead singer Patrick Monahan in the recording of "Hey, Soul Sister"

After collaborating with the Norwegian production duo Espionage (Espen Lind and Amund Bjørklund) in the writing and recording of the track "Brick by Brick", Train's lead singer Pat Monahan decided to record another track with the duo.[4]

I said, 'I want to write an INXS-y song. So, they started playing kind of an INXS-y song, and I wrote the song 'Hey, Soul Sister' to it and the melodies and started to sing it. And I said, 'Man, this just doesn't sound great to me.'

— Pat Monahan, on wanting to write a song in INXS' style.

One of the guys, Espen, who's like a huge star in Norway, picked up a ukulele, and said, 'Hey, how about this?' I said, 'Are you (kidding) me?' And it made the difference. It made my words dance. It made sense. These words were meant to dance with ukulele and not guitar.

— Pat Monahan

Composition edit

There's super catchy riffs and melodies in it, which I think are way more important that any production trick or great-sounding vocal production. It's kind of us going backward so we can go forward.

—Pat Monahan, on the band's return to its folk rock roots[5]

"Hey, Soul Sister" is a mid-tempo pop rock song. Written in the key of E major,[6] the beat is set in common time and composed in a tempo of 97 bpm. The song is characterized by a signature pattern played on a ukulele,[4] that follows a basic E5 – B – C#m – A (I5 – V – vi – IV) progression in the verse, tag and bridge, switching to an A – B – E5 – B (IV – V – I5 – V) progression in the chorus. The song's chord structure is arranged in an A B A B A B A form. It rhymes "sister" with "Mr. Mister."

Lyrically, Stafford admitted the inspiration for the song came about while Monahan was imagining what Burning Man must be like, and started penning lyrics inspired by the imagery he saw:[7]

The story lyrically, I’ve heard Pat talk about this in interviews. He’s always heard of Burning Man. Somewhere in Reno Nevada's desert, they do it every year. It’s this whole city in the desert that gets built for a festival that happens every year. They build a huge man out of wood and at the end of the festival they burn it. Pat had never been to Burning Man, but he had an image in his head of what it must be like. All these beautiful women dancing around the fire. That was the imagery he conjured up when he was writing the lyrics to, "Hey, Soul Sister." It’s a pretty big deal. Thousands and thousands of people go to it every year. People run around naked and I guess it’s a total crazy deal.

Monahan has since confirmed this in several radio interviews.[8][9]

Critical reception edit

"Hey, Soul Sister" has seen mixed reviews from music critics.

Positive reviews edit

Scott Mervis, writing for the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, praised the song as a welcome comeback from the band's hiatus, calling the track "joyous" and "bouncy".[10]

The writer for Eclectic Music Lover listed the song as #37 on his "100 Best Songs of the 2010s" list, praising its lyrics as "heartwarming" and "guaranteed to bring a smile to even the dourest face." The writer also called the music video "charming."[11]

Negative reviews edit

The Village Voice derided the song, quipping "'Hey Soul Sister' is an orgy where bad ideas trade STDs, and the most syphilitic brain-fart stumbled in drunk from a Smash Mouth show ... From Smash Mouth, Train picked up an earworm that burrowed into society's asshole, laid 4.7 million iTunes eggs, and gave birth to a grey cloud of banality that covers the Earth."[12] Similarly, Mother Jones stated "there is less soul in the entirety of Train than in the palest single member of Collective Soul. 'Hey, Soul Sister' is soul for people who refer to peanut butter and jelly as 'soul food.' It makes the California Raisins look like the second coming of Sly and the Family Stone. It's so white, Sarah Palin just named it her running mate for 2012."[13]

In a tamer review, Business Insider named "Hey, Soul Sister" the worst song of 2010 describing the song as a "saccharine, falsettoed ear-bleeder."[14] LA Weekly took aim at Pat Monahan's lyrical content, awarding "Hey, Soul Sister" places two through ten in its Top 10 worst lyrics of 2010 list.[15]

In a review of Purity, Slate writer Ruther Graham criticized its final pages, which contain a scene about "Hey Soul Sister", and the titular character Purity Tyler calling it a "great song." Graham strongly opposed the song and its lyrical content and called the scene the worst part of the novel.[16]

Music video edit

The video was filmed in front of Chango Coffee at the corner of Morton Ave and Echo Park Ave. in Echo Park, Los Angeles, California. The video intercuts images of Train singing with a woman (Kiana Bessa Chastain) walking around her apartment and a man (actor Andrew Craghan) painting the words to the song on the landscape. Eventually the two meet each other in the street in front of the band.

Appearances in other media edit

Train performed the song on the show Red Eye w/ Greg Gutfeld on Fox News which aired during the early morning broadcast on April 20, 2010.[17] They have also performed the song on numerous talk shows, including The Tonight Show with Jay Leno,[18] Live with Regis and Kelly,[18] The Ellen DeGeneres Show,[19] Lopez Tonight, and The Howard Stern Show.[20] They also performed the song before the 2010 Major League Baseball Home Run Derby on ESPN.

noticed they re not using picks at all it s more of a flamenco style Once I got that down then it sounded like the real deal 4 Lead guitarist Jimmy Stafford on having to learn to play ukulele as requested by lead singer Patrick Monahan in the recording of Hey Soul Sister After collaborating with the Norwegian production duo Espionage Espen Lind and Amund Bjorklund in the writing and recording of the track Brick by Brick Train s lead singer Pat Monahan decided to record another track with the duo 4 I said I want to write an INXS y song So they started playing kind of an INXS y song and I wrote the song Hey Soul Sister to it and the melodies and started to sing it And I said Man this just doesn t sound great to me Pat Monahan on wanting to write a song in INXS style One of the guys Espen who s like a huge star in Norway picked up a ukulele and said Hey how about this I said Are you kidding me And it made the difference It made my words dance It made sense These words were meant to dance with ukulele and not guitar Pat MonahanComposition editThere s super catchy riffs and melodies in it which I think are way more important that any production trick or great sounding vocal production It s kind of us going backward so we can go forward Pat Monahan on the band s return to its folk rock roots 5 Hey Soul Sister is a mid tempo pop rock song Written in the key of E major 6 the beat is set in common time and composed in a tempo of 97 bpm The song is characterized by a signature pattern played on a ukulele 4 that follows a basic E5 B C m A I5 V vi IV progression in the verse tag and bridge switching to an A B E5 B IV V I5 V progression in the chorus The song s chord structure is arranged in an A B A B A B A form It rhymes sister with Mr Mister Lyrically Stafford admitted the inspiration for the song came about while Monahan was imagining what Burning Man must be like and started penning lyrics inspired by the imagery he saw 7 The story lyrically I ve heard Pat talk about this in interviews He s always heard of Burning Man Somewhere in Reno Nevada s desert they do it every year It s this whole city in the desert that gets built for a festival that happens every year They build a huge man out of wood and at the end of the festival they burn it Pat had never been to Burning Man but he had an image in his head of what it must be like All these beautiful women dancing around the fire That was the imagery he conjured up when he was writing the lyrics to Hey Soul Sister It s a pretty big deal Thousands and thousands of people go to it every year People run around naked and I guess it s a total crazy deal Monahan has since confirmed this in several radio interviews 8 9 Critical reception edit Hey Soul Sister has seen mixed reviews from music critics Positive reviews edit Scott Mervis writing for the Pittsburgh Post Gazette praised the song as a welcome comeback from the band s hiatus calling the track joyous and bouncy 10 The writer for Eclectic Music Lover listed the song as 37 on his 100 Best Songs of the 2010s list praising its lyrics as heartwarming and guaranteed to bring a smile to even the dourest face The writer also called the music video charming 11 Negative reviews edit The Village Voice derided the song quipping Hey Soul Sister is an orgy where bad ideas trade STDs and the most syphilitic brain fart stumbled in drunk from a Smash Mouth show From Smash Mouth Train picked up an earworm that burrowed into society s asshole laid 4 7 million iTunes eggs and gave birth to a grey cloud of banality that covers the Earth 12 Similarly Mother Jones stated there is less soul in the entirety of Train than in the palest single member of Collective Soul Hey Soul Sister is soul for people who refer to peanut butter and jelly as soul food It makes the California Raisins look like the second coming of Sly and the Family Stone It s so white Sarah Palin just named it her running mate for 2012 13 In a tamer review Business Insider named Hey Soul Sister the worst song of 2010 describing the song as a saccharine falsettoed ear bleeder 14 LA Weekly took aim at Pat Monahan s lyrical content awarding Hey Soul Sister places two through ten in its Top 10 worst lyrics of 2010 list 15 In a review of Purity Slate writer Ruther Graham criticized its final pages which contain a scene about Hey Soul Sister and the titular character Purity Tyler calling it a great song Graham strongly opposed the song and its lyrical content and called the scene the worst part of the novel 16 Music video editThe video was filmed in front of Chango Coffee at the corner of Morton Ave and Echo Park Ave in Echo Park Los Angeles California The video intercuts images of Train singing with a woman Kiana Bessa Chastain walking around
