In an interview for '' The Guardian '' , Alexis Petridis asked White about " Freedom at 21 " , which Petridis described as appearing to be a " protracted moan about feminism , that seems to be suggesting that White 's life would have been easier if women just did what he told them to " . In response , White asserted that the song was about modern attitudes toward technology : " The early telephones , the telegraph , you had to treat this technology with respect . You can write on the internet for the whole world , you can make comments , but there 's no one telling you that 's impolite or that 's inappropriate . " In another interview for '' The Guardian '' with Tim Lewis , White responded to accusations of misogyny : " I do n't know where the hell people got that from me because I 've done so much work in my life to promote female musicians and artists ... I respect and I 'm inspired by them so much . " In 2012 , " Sixteen Saltines " was nominated for Best Rock Video at the MTV Video Music Awards and Best Indie/Rock Video – International at the UK Music Video Awards . '' Blunderbuss '' was nominated for Album of the Year and Best Rock Album at the 55th Annual Grammy Awards . " Freedom at 21 " was nominated for the Grammy Award for Best Rock Song the same year .
