The songs were strong, but nonetheless there was room for improvement. New single, &#8216;A Bad Guy&#8217; came from a trip to Tokyo and a love of concept albums, such as &#8216;Sgt. Pepper&#8217;s Lonely Hearts Club Band&#8217; from The Beatles &#8211; and led to him exploring and embracing new ideas, with the thought, &#8220;What if I am the bad guy?&#8221; &#8211; soon the lyrics were written and the song was born.<\/p>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script><br \/>\n<!-- Random Ad stuff --><br \/>\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display: block;\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-2076862002005673\" data-ad-slot=\"3107208401\" data-ad-format=\"auto\"><\/ins><\/p>\n<p><script>\n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The video for &#8216;A Bad Guy&#8217; is intentionally complicated, and leaves room for a lot of interpretation, although Maza stresses, he \u201cput a safe line to keep it entertaining.\u201d Shot in Vienna, as well as a small town in Austria with supermodel co-star Victoria Karner, it&#8217;s filled with picturesque scenery.
