Larisha Paul: "Why was Boy the most succinct title to capture this particular record?"
Luke Hemmings: "It comes up a few times on a couple of songs. It’s existential, childlike wonder. It has that feeling to it of trying to understand the world around you and why I am the way I am. A lot of it is questioning, why do I feel like this? Why do I interact with the world like this and see it this way? I think there’s a certain point where you have to decide whether you’re going to face life or just stay in the place you are. Boy is a really lovely way to simplify that."

“I have a tendency to write pretty emotionally dark things, and I didn't want it to feel like a sad body of work. I wanted it to feel in the middle of those two things and feel a bit more how life feels, trying to sum up… I don't know, being human is so — from my experience, it's so up and down and my emotions are intense in both ways from day to day. So I wanted it to feel more melancholy and ride that line."
– Luke Hemmings talking about his music style, via People!
