During the making of the See the Sun, Murray and the band regularly updated an online blog on Murray's official site so that fans could follow the process and get a feel for the album's sound. On this blog, it was stated by a member of the band that "Better Days" was the hardest song on the album to record, as it took multiple recording sessions before they produced the album version.
