Todd Fancey (“That One Night” songwriter, New Pornographers guitarist)

: A few months later, after the writers' strike, the New Pornographers were on tour in Houston. I had almost completely forgotten about the song. I got a call on my cell from a production assistant on the show. They were like, "We really liked your version, but we want it to be smoother, more polished. And we need it to be Tuesday." It was a Saturday. I hang up the phone and was like, "####. How am I going to do this?" So I booked a studio in Denver with these complete strangers and did a more polished version. I got it in by Tuesday and then they called and said, "We're going to use the original one you sent. This new one is too polished." I got a lump-sum payment, and every quarter I get money wherever it's played.

Fancey dug through an old hard drive under his bed to find an alternate, unheard version of "Hunter's Song" with many verses not used on the show. For the first time anywhere, you can hear it right here.
