"Talking Like I'm Falling Down Stairs" was the first single from The Great Impression, Sparkadia's second album, landing in Australia in September 2010 on Ivy League Records, a good while before the album. Triple J put it on high rotation, and it got to 59 on the Australian singles chart.

The video went somewhere properly spooky: a 1930s mental asylum in Auckland, New Zealand, shot in September 2010 with the New Zealand agency Blur And Sharpen directing. Alexander Burnett, on hand for the shoot, said the grand, crumbling building put him in mind of The Shining and The Great Gatsby. An official remix by Dreamtrak followed on SoundCloud in 2011.
