#Вillу_Idоl сочинил Sweet Sixteen, вдохновившись историей латыша Лидскалнинша, с которым в 1910 году перед самой свадьбой невеста расторгла помолвку (отец запретил ей выходить замуж, не получив от жениха обещанных денег), после чего латыш в растрепанных чувствах рванул в Америку, где в одиночку на побережии Флориды в память о несостоявшейся жене 30 лет ночами строил местную достопримечательность - #коралловый_замок. Именно внутри этого замка снят первый вариант клипа на Sweet Sixteen.
