"When I Grow Up" is a 1998 song written, recorded and produced by alternative rock band Garbage. The song was released as the fourth international single to be taken from the band's multi-platinum second album Version 2.0 over the course of the following year.

Contents

"When I Grow Up" was the first split-single release in Europe for Garbage, [3] in some countries, "The Trick Is to Keep Breathing" was released in its place. [4] "When I Grow Up" proved to be a charting hit in both United Kingdom [5] and Spain, [6] before going on to become Garbage's most successful single release in Australia and New Zealand at that point in their career. [7]

In North America, "When I Grow Up" served as one of two singles (along with Sheryl Crow's cover version of "Sweet Child o' Mine") released from the soundtrack of the Adam Sandler comedy film Big Daddy .

The song is featured extensively in (and plot-important to) the fifth and final season of Warehouse 13 .

Composition

"When I Grow Up" was written and recorded at Smart Studios during the 1997 sessions for Version 2.0 . For the intro, the band routed a Nord synthesizer through a guitar pedal and distorted the sound in a 48-track ProTools set up. Drummer Butch Vig used three different snare drums, each hit consecutively and each processed (one through a flanger, one pitch shifted down and one gated), and made into a loop and matched with the Nord for that opening sequence. The scratchy vinyl record sound came from a Victrola gramophone that belonged to engineer Billy Bush's grandfather. [8] The percolating keyboard parts were created by programming some sounds on a Planet Phatt synth module and running them through a guitar amp, complemented by a harmonic guitar note with a filter pulse applied. [8] All of Shirley's vocal, drum and bass parts (performed by the band's touring bassist Daniel Shulman) were recorded to analogue "to get tape compression", while loops and sound effects were left in ProTools. A MicroLynx deck synchronizer was used to marry the analogue tape and digital audio workstation outputs, while the final mix was printed utilizing two Studer 2" tape machines. [8]

Guitarist Steve Marker credited Garbage front-woman Shirley Manson for coming up with a lot of the "sunny-pop" melodies on the song, explaining "that's something that we've always tried to do - have a dark lyric disguised by a happy pop melody. We like that sort of contradiction and juxtaposition." [9] Lyrically, Manson described "When I Grow Up" as being about "that delirious state of wishing and hoping and dreaming for things, not giving up. There's a great quote by Flaubert where he says, 'Sometimes the forces of the world hold us back for a while, but not for ever' ... ". [10] Manson stated that despite the song dealing with growing up, it actually questions whether adulthood brings maturity ("Even though you're sussed and you're smart and you've worked it all out, you haven't even got the remotest inkling of what it's all about. And you can never hope to") [11] and mocks those who feel that way; "I'm constantly patronised by people who think they're really mature and have their life in order and are really together. That's so small minded." [12] "When I Grow Up" notably snuck the phrase "golden shower(s)" onto daytime radio, of which Manson remained proud of afterwards: "It's our little trojan horse!" [13]

"When I Grow Up" was remastered in 2007 for Garbage's greatest hits album Absolute Garbage [14] and remastered from the original studio tapes in 2018 for Version 2.0 (20th Anniversary Deluxe Edition).

Music video

The original "When I Grow Up" music video documented the frenzy of a Version 2.0 tour concert. director Sophie Muller shot footage over the course of four Garbage shows over November 17–21, 1998 in Indianapolis, Indiana, St. Louis, Missouri, Kansas City, Kansas, and Madison, Wisconsin, during the band's North American tour. [58] At all of the concerts, the band performed "When I Grow Up" twice, once in the main set and a second time as an encore, to provide enough footage for Muller to utilise. [59] Footage for the music video for "The Trick Is to Keep Breathing" was also filmed by Muller on the same nights. Unlike the special effects-laden videos for their previous three singles, "When I Grow Up" was intended to focus on the performance side of the band. [58] Both videos were ready to air by December 3, 1998, and was broadcast in support of the single releases in United Kingdom, Europe and Australia. A remastered version of the "When I Grow Up" video was included on Garbage's 2007 greatest hits DVD Absolute Garbage [14] and later uploaded to the band's YouTube channel in 2018. [60]

A second music video was directed by Muller in London at the start of June 1999. [61] It was filmed on a stage set backed by lighted replicas of the band's G, Version 2.0 globe and "When I Grow Up" thought balloon logos. Three sequences within the video featured Manson performing choreographed dance moves with two dancers. The second video was filmed to promote Big Daddy in North America; a second edit of the video also incorporated montage footage from the movie. The video premiered on MTV's Total Request Live [42] and VH1 on June 21, 1999. [43] The edit of the "When I Grow Up" video that incorporated footage from the movie was included as a bonus feature on the 2000 Big Daddy DVD. [62]

Alternate versions

For the single release "When I Grow Up" was remixed by Danny Tenaglia; he provided a full club remix and a dub version ("Golden Shower dub"), as well as a short vocal cut ("Shirlapella"). All three mixes were pressed to vinyl for club play in Europe, the full club mix and a radio edit were also serviced to North American DJs. In 2007, an edit of the club mix was included on the Garbage Mixes bonus disc of the Absolute Garbage (Special Edition) two-disc set. [14] Both club and dub mixes were remastered and included on 2018's Version 2.0: The Official Remixes digital album.

Garbage themselves produced a new single version, downplaying the guitar elements and with additional synth, for the North American Top 40 radio release. [63] This mix was serviced in two forms; one ("Pop Mix Main") and the other ("Alt Pop Mix") replaced the lyrics "Happy hours, golden showers" with "Happy lovers, ache for hours" and "Unexpected, unprotected, damn the consequences" with "Unprotected, unexpected, fear the consequences" for radio play. This new version was remastered for Version 2.0: The Official Remixes, however used the standard lyrics, and was cut a few bars longer, and included an extra lyric: "How'd you like it best, you'll let me know".

Critical reception

"When I Grow Up" experienced a mostly positive response from music journalists upon the impact of Version 2.0 and again upon single release. Stephen Jones of Music Week posted a track-by-track review of Version 2.0 as the album campaign launched, where he described "When I Grow Up" as "pure pop in a Strawberry Switchblade vein", and adding that the song was his favourite track. [64] Bradley Bamberger, in his album campaign launch write-up for Billboard , described the song as "a disco-fied girl group essay on teen angst the long-term benefits of a forward-minded attitude". [65] Entertainment Weekly's album reviewer compared the song's "breathy refrain" to '70s/'80s group Blondie, [66] while Paul Brannigan also compared the song to Blondie ["... gone Eurodisco"] in his album review for Kerrang! . [67] In a review for Select , John Harris wrote that "When I Grow Up" was "one of the album's only real troughs", adding that the lyrical matter makes the song sound like "the kind of icky floss they play at the end of California Dreams . [68] Tom Laskin, in his review for Goldmine , noted Manson's "fluffy Kim Wilde delivery" wasn't very interesting, but that it fitted the "buoyant pop setting". [69] In single reviews for Billboard, Chuck Taylor wrote that the song was "edgier, more daring, and lots more fun than the average pop hit", [70] and later described the "Pop Mix" as "an artful slice of bubblegum". [63] Michael Paolettea wrote of the Danny Tenaglia remixes, "with a rubbery bassline, squiggly synth patterns and "Plastic Dreams" inspired drum programming... the song now travels down a road less rocky, but no less energetic".
