“Everybody Talks” is the lead single from Neon Trees' second studio album Picture Show. The song became their highest-charting single and their first top 10 hit, peaking at #6 on the Billboard Hot 100. To date, it remains their most popular song.
According to an interview with Rolling Stone, frontman Tyler Glenn says he was inspired by “Roy Orbison and the Motown music that my dad listens to.”
In an October 2020 tweet, Tyler Glenn stated “The first 3 Neon Trees albums I wrote in the closet but I hid queer messages in songs. ‘Everybody Talks’ was about my ex-girlfriend spreading rumors that I was gay (Surprise girl) I came out 6 years ago & it was the BEST move for my health & happiness”.
