what is the song cool by gwen stefani about
Cool (Gwen Stefani song) "Cool" was originally written by Dallas Austin after listening to Stefani's group No Doubt's song "Underneath It All" (2002).[1] Austin commented that he was trying to write his version of No Doubt's "Simple Kind of Life", but he was unable to finish the song. He later asked Stefani if she wanted to co-write lyrics.[1][2] During a studio session together, they finished "Cool" in 15 minutes. Stefani commented, "When he told me about the track and where it came from for him, it just triggered something in me."[2] The lyrics of "Cool" reflect Stefani's former relationship with No Doubt bassist Tony Kanal.[2][3] Although their romantic relationship ended, the lyrics portray Stefani's attitude that it is "cool" that they still remain very good friends.[2][3] Stefani and Kanal's relationship had provided the inspiration for No Doubt's "Don't Speak" (1996),[4] and while "Cool" presents an amicable friendship between former lovers,[2] "Don't Speak" is about a failing relationship and never arrives at a solution for the couple.[4] Stefani said that she had never intended to include "personal" material on Love. Angel. Music. Baby., and commented, "but no matter what you do, things just come out. It just ended this whole thing for me in my head, and it puts an end to a chapter in a really nice way."[2] The lyrics of "Cool" sum up the evolution of their relationship with the line "After all that we've been through, I know we're cool".[5]
