I think the title is meant to be a play on words. I'm not quite sure how the British put the emphasis on paranoia, but in most of the U.S. people pronounce it "pair-a-noya" Believe me, I wish I had a British accent instead =) Also, it's an interesting title because she's singing about how she can't tell someone how she feels rather than, as we say in the U.S., "grow a pair" and pluck up the courage. But this is awesome footage! Thanks for posting!

Yeah, that's what I was thinking :D

And pff, I think American accents are awesome x3 But I can see how British ones can be appealing to Americans haha.

And you're welcome! I wish I could go see her again :]

Great video, nicely filmed!

The title has always confused me, while she said it's "Grown A Pair" in past videos, I'm sure she sings "I've grown a paranoia that will certainly destroy it, if you stick around and watch me fall to my doom."

Perhaps it's a little pun to make it a bit more cheeky? Gotta love Julia! :)

Heh, thank you! I normally have really shaky hands so it's reassuring to know it's not too bad.

Yeah, that confused me too - 'pair' does sound like the beginning of 'paranoia' in her accent though so it was probably a pun, yeah xD

Julia is awesome! And amazing live :D
