Quick Facts Single by Neon Trees, from the album Habits ...

Glenn was writing the song to sound like a 1980's throwback, "Obviously the song can't hide from the '80s thing, but really that song is more about return to innocence in love and in relationships. I thought the lo-fi VHS tape look was clever."[1]

The song itself got its title from the year Glenn was born. Lead bassist Branden Campbell also stated in an interview that the song was not about the year 1983, but going back to the innocence in one another's lives where relationships were easier and families were always together.[1]
