“Cigarette Daydreams” Presents The Pain Of One’s Search For Identity Through The Musings Of A Parted Lover. The Song Itself Has A Softer More Brooding Sound Than Most Of Cage The Elephant’s Work. In The Words Of Brad Shultz The Band’s Rhythm Guitarist "Why Do We Have To Write Cage The Elephant Songs? We Can Just Write Songs Regardless Of What Style Of Music They Might Be. I Like The Idea Of Doing Things That People Might Not Expect From Us. So We Decided To Take A Whole New Approach To Writing And This Song Is A Good Example Of That. It’s Just About Being Honest." These Themes Are Visualized In The Song’s Music Video Presented In Nostalgic Black And White Disappointing Only For Its Notable Lack Of Rain. “Cigarette Daydreams” Was Certified Platinum By The RIAA On August 16 2019.
