"I Want to Take You Home Tonight" was written on New Years Eve in a hotel room while Rivers Cuomo was in New York City.  Having left the party in the streets, Cuomo concluded that fans enjoyed songs that could be sung loudly, with enthusiasm.  He wrote in his journal that one thousand "[[Keep Fishin'|Keep Fishin's]]" would never equal a "[[Say It Ain't So]]" because it lacked said enthusiasm vocally.  Cuomo then returned to his hotel room and worked out the song.

The song was rehearsed by Cuomo as a song in contention prior to entering the studio for the band's [[Make Believe|fifth album]], but the song is not known to have been rehearsed by the band as a whole.
