Based on a script that Cameron Crowe originally wrote in 1984, which took place in Phoenix, Arizona. After Andrew Wood, the lead singer of Seattle bands Malfunkshun and Mother Love Bone, died of a drug overdose in March 1990, Crowe noticed the music community in Seattle coming together to process the loss. He rewrote his script with the incident in mind, changing its setting to Seattle, which had been the location of his previous movie, Say Anything (1989), which featured a song from Mother Love Bone in the soundtrack, "Chloe Dancer/Crown of Thorns" - the same song is on the 'Singles' soundtrack.
Chris Cornell of Soundgarden and Audioslave saw a list of Citizen Dick song titles, all completely made up, which would appear briefly in the film and decided to pen songs to match each title. One of those songs, "Seasons", appears on the film soundtrack. Another, "Spoonman", was later recorded by Soundgarden. It became a hit in 1994 and can be heard in a rough version (perhaps a demo) in the film when an unseen person is posting Citizen Dick fliers.
Paul Giamatti in one of his first films says one word: "What?"
The Coryell Court Apartments, where the main characters live in the film, is located at 1820 Thomas Street in Seattle's Capitol Hill neighborhood. The building's courtyard fountain was created for the movie out of Styrofoam.
The band playing in the bar is Alice in Chains. The band refused to do playback and performed live on set.
"Steve Dunne: I just happened to be nowhere near your neighborhood."
"Steve Dunne: [calling Linda] Linda Powell? Steve Dunne. Hey, yeah, I met you... 61 hours ago. Yeah, that was me. Listen, uh, do you want to get some dinner? Uh, how about some lunch? No lunch. Coffee? Water? How about some water? I'll meet you where you're already having lunch, and we'll have some water."
