Artist commentary:

Catboss:

14121 kilometers is the approximate distance from Singapore (i.e. where I usually live) to Westwood, Los Angeles, where I currently stay and study. I rounded it up to the nearest number that I could make a tongue-twister out of; it's officially pronounced "one hundred and forty-one hundred and twenty-one." Deal with. Anyway, it's a song about being at home, and also not being at home, at the same time, at all times, and also, places. Because when you think about it, being perpetually [at home] and being perpetually [not at home] are identical states of being. Yes, I'm aware that makes no sense; this song is also about being profoundly disconnected from reality. Have fun!
