Later, another promo-only release for "Troublemaker" had surfaced, an EP of seven club/dance DJ remixes of the song called ''Troublemaker Remixes''. These mixes are typical, mainly electronic, club-style remixes featuring little more than the vocal tracks from the original, although a few utilize other aspects such as the main guitar riff and the ''wuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh'' guitar/vocal unison. One track even samples "[[Dope Nose]]". | Later, another promo-only release for "Troublemaker" had surfaced, an EP of seven club/dance DJ remixes of the song called ''Troublemaker Remixes''.

<blockquote>'''''Troublemaker which talks about your schooling, the middle references all those things you experience growing up. It's an interesting way to start a record.''''' | |||
<span style="color:#ff0000">''Rivers:</span> Yeah it's a real introductory sort of song saying, "Hi this is who I am". In that sense, "Troublemaker" reminds me of the way we started the blue album with "My Name is Jonas." It's just like reaching out your hand to shake and saying. "Hi, this is who I am." And I go through some of my childhood, and how I was raised and, what my background is and how I see myself now.''<br><br> | |||
'''''You touch on bits of spirituality or other things going on in your life at the moment.''''' | |||
<span style="color:#ff0000">''Rivers:</span> The way my brain works its actually hard for me to remember what the content of my songs is when I'm sitting here talking about it. I'm really focused when I'm writing it or even singing it, but talking about it I almost can't remember what the song is about. Troublemaker is a song I had written in 2006 and I was stuck on it. I set it aside and forgot about it. We listened back to old demos and immediately everyone was like, yes that's the song.''</blockquote> | |||
