Ep. 307: Peter Stuart discusses Dog’s Eye View’s “Everything Falls Apart”

June 8, 2026·1h 17m
Episode Description from the Publisher

In this episode, songwriter and vocalist Peter Stuart discusses the writing and recording of the hit 1996 single from Dog’s Eye View, “Everything Falls Apart.” Written quickly (and with a hangover) after a disappointing meeting with a potential producer, the song describes a young Peter’s tendency to be his own worst enemy. Torpedoing his own life for excitement may have been a subconscious way of coming up with good subject matter for his lyrics, and fortunately in this instance, it worked. Tune in for a simultaneously inspiring and entertaining look into the creation of this mid-90s classic.  Chris DeMakes A Podcast is brought to you by DistroKid, the ultimate partner for taking your music to the next level.
