Max Bemis wrote "Baby Girl, I'm a Blur" in Central Park, and it became the first single from In Defense of the Genre, Say Anything's 2007 album, going up on iTunes on October 2 and reaching radio on November 6. Bemis has said he fell for the melody and always pictured it as something close to Nine Inch Nails, driven by a pulsing drum beat, and it lands squarely in electronic-rock territory.
Wayne Isham directed the video, which premiered on November 12, 2007 as an "Unleashed" clip on MTV2 and on mtvU the same day: the band plays in a black room against a wall of square infrared images, cut with infrared shots of a couple, and by the end they're smashing their instruments. The song also turned up in "Cancer Man", the fourth episode of Breaking Bad.
