Tanque Verde is a suburban census-designated place in Pima County, United States, northeast of Tucson. The population was 16,195 at the 2000 census. Tanque Verde began as a small community, remote from Tucson, settled by ranchers arriving to the American West around the 1860s; the name of the area, which means "green tank," is a reference to the algae in a large and prominent stock water tank in the area in the late 19th century. The Tanque Verde Valley was used by a Native American tribe throughout the 19th century. Soldiers from Fort Lowell operated by the U. S. Army in the late 19th century frequented the Tanque Verde Valley. In 1886, the residents of the Tanque Verde valley established the Tanque Verde School District as the first significant political entity of the community; the army closed Fort Lowell in 1891, when some Hispanic immigrants from Baja California and Sonora saw the fort's buildings standing empty, they moved into the abandoned adobes. Soon they began farming the rich floodplain northeast of the fort, where Pantano Wash feeds into Tanque Verde Creek to form the Rillito, by the turn of the century the community they came to call El Fuerte was thriving.

Upstream from El Fuerte, in the canyons and nooks of the front range of the Santa Catalina Mountains and the Rincon range—the area they came to call Tanque Verde—Hispanic families with names like Escalante, Andrade, Lopez, Benitez, Telles and Gallegos began establishing homes and ranches. The self-sufficient community of homesteads thrived, but over time many of the smaller ranches were swallowed up by larger ones or sold to speculators. According to Frank Escalante, a descendant of Tanque Verde homesteaders, some non-Hispanic Americans robbed some of these families of their land titles and ranches by fraud or force; some Hispanics who became Mexican Americans after the Gadsden Purchase had limited understanding of English and a naivete regarding American property law four decades after the transition, made easy marks for the unscrupulous. The infamous Arizona Rangers sometimes enforced interlopers' property claims; the First World War brought a rise in the market for cotton and the value of farmland, still more of the original homesteaders felt pressured to sell.

The growth of Tucson and the demand for land for housing priced most of the remaining pioneers off their ranches. In 1989, Tanque Verde was the main site for the Nickelodeon program Hey Dude. By 2005, more than 1,600 students were enrolled in the school district's three schools, serving grades K-9; the Tanque Verde School District continues to register among the highest standardized test scores in Arizona. As the Tucson area increased population, the Tanque Verde Valley did as well, but at a much slower rate. Much of the land in Tanque Verde is in covenants dictating land-use policies; these covenants control growth and are considered by residents to ensure land preservation. By the 1960s, Tanque Verde had become a true suburb of Tucson. Tanque Verde has become an affluent community, with a significant equestrian presence. According to the U. S. Census Bureau, Tanque Verde has the highest median household incomes of any city or community in southern Arizona, one of the highest in Arizona. Tanque Verde is located at 32°16′17″N 110°45′6″W.

The Tanque Verde Valley is characterized by the Santa Catalina Mountains to the north, the Rincon Mountains to the east. The Tanque Verde Valley is traversed by Tanque Verde and Agua Caliente. According to the United States Census Bureau, Tanque Verde has a total area of 32.9 square miles, all of it land. The river system in Arizona, including in Tanque Verde, is threatened by the increased pumping and diversion of water from the rivers and streams for agriculture and domestic use.

The wattled curassow is a threatened member of the family Cracidae, the curassows and chachalacas. It is found in remote rainforests in the western Amazon basin in South America. Males have black plumage, except for a white crissum, with curly feathers on the head and red bill ornaments and wattles. Females and juveniles are similar but lack the bill ornamentation and have a reddish-buff crissum area; the wattled curassow is the most ancient lineage of the southern Crax curassows. In captivity, it sometimes hybridises with the blue-billed curassow; the habitat of the wattled curassow is gallery forests and seasonally-flooded forests where it feeds in small groups on the ground. The diet is fruit, but invertebrates and some small vertebrates are opportunistically taken. Little is known of its breeding habits, but it is known that the nest is built of sticks and leaves and two eggs are laid; the population of this species is declining. It is threatened by loss of habitat, as the rainforest is progressively cleared, by hunting, the International Union for Conservation of Nature has rated its conservation status as "endangered".

The wattled curassow is about 82–89 cm long, weighs around 2,500 g. It is a large curassow lacking the white tail-tips found in many of these birds. Males have black plumage all over except for the white crissum; the irides are dark brown. It has conspicuous crimson bill ornaments—a round red knob with bony core adorns the maxilla base, while the cere extends apically at least halfway under this knob and below the mandible base forms a small fleshy wattle. Females have black plumage just like the male. In some, the remiges and sometimes the wing coverts have faint brownish marbling, their bills and irides are blackish, but their feet and legs are a greyish flesh color. They lack the bill knob and wattles, their cere is bright orange-red. Young males have less well-developed facial ornaments with a more yellowish hue like females do; the hatchlings are covered in brown whitish down below. Adults look much like those of the red-billed curassow, whose males have only an indistinct maxilla knob, its females have a blackish cere, rather pale legs and feet, their wings—particularly the remiges—usually have distinct chestnut brown marbling.

The black curassow subspecies C. alector erythrognatha, found north of the Solimões, has a cere like the wattled curassow female, but its bill is lighter and the crissum is white in both sexes. Young C. globulosa males are confused with those of the yellow-knobbed curassows, but the latter has a white tail-margin and yellow bill wattle. All these similar species are allopatric however, with only C. a. erythrognatha occurring adjacent to the range of C. globulosa. The wattled curassow is one of the Crax species described in 1825 by Johann Baptist von Spix, its scientific name Crax globulosa can be translated as "knobbed curassow". Crax is a term for curassows introduced by Mathurin Jacques Brisson in his 1760s Ornithologia and adopted by Linnaeus as a genus name in the Systema naturae. Globulosa indicates the possession of one or more prominent round surface features; this bird, with its remarkable features, was subsequently described as new by several scientists who were unawares of von Spix' description.

It has no recognized subspecies. According to cladistic analysis of multisequence mtDNA data, the wattled curassow is the most ancient lineage of the southern Crax curassows, its origins date back some 6–5.5 mya ago when its ancestors became isolated in the western Amazon rainforest. Although a close relationship to the red-billed curassow has been proposed, the wattled curassow seems to be a quite basal lineage without close relatives; the similarity with the red-billed curassow seems to be due to the fact that these are the most ancient species of the southern lineage, retaining more plesiomorphies. Though externally still alike, the two species have vastly different calls and evolved, at about the same time, at opposite ends of the original southern Crax curassow's range. From captivity, hybrids with the blue-billed curassow are known; that species is one of the northern group of Crax. The yellow-knobbed curassows is closest to it, but regardless, they are quite distinct from the wattled curassow.

But viable hybrids are suspected to be possible between any two species of Cracidae. The color and shape of the bill ornaments of male Crax hybrids are not predicted, but character displacement would demand the eastern subspecies of the black curassow to have a red ornamentation, as no red-ornamented congeners occur in or near its range; the red cere of the western black curassow may well be due to occasional hybrid introgression of C. globulosa alleles, as it is unlikely that the Solimões is impassable to these birds. It has been found from the western and southwestern Amazon Basin of Brazil west to the Andes foothills of southeastern Colombia, eastern Ecuador and Peru, northern Bolivia, its area of occurrence is delimited by the Caquetá-Japurá, Solimões, Amazon and Madeira Rivers, the 300 meter contour line towards the Andes. But its precise distribution is little-known.

Musically, it is a bluesy song with a playful pop sound, it received positive reviews, with many critics complimenting its style and the chemistry between Jones and Burton. "Happy Pills" was produced by Brian Burton. The song surprised Burton from the moment they wrote it. Jones called it "too much fun," saying that they "couldn't stop singing it" and while they didn't know if it would fit on the record, once they listened to the song "it had to be there."The song revolves around a breakup as Jones admits to be feeling good about not having to deal with her lover anymore. One lyric pleads, "Would you please just let me go now?" Addressing a man who crushed her feelings.

The song has been described as "upbeat" and "jazzy". On February 28, 2012, Jones premiered "Happy Pills" on her Facebook page via SoundCloud. After she announced that she would be performing at SXSW in 2012, she added that she would perform the single for the first time at that event. Jones has performed the song on the Late Show with David Letterman, Later... with Jools Holland and Good Morning America. Becky Bain of Idolator described the song as "a sunny, languid tune". In a second review, Bain said that it "is a lethargic but lovely lark of a song." Simon Vozick-Levinson from Rolling Stone wrote that her voice is "breezy" and that "breaking up never sounded so fun." Glenn Gamboa from Newsday called the track "stellar" and wrote that the song "shows how Jones is still looking to stretch musically, while maintaining her core appeal, is destined to be in heavy rotation at cafes near you." Ray Rahman from Entertainment Weekly wrote that "the song is a simple, pop-leaning number that makes us that much more excited about Jones’ comeback year."Chris Coplan from Consequence of Sound wrote that "the track features a bluesy guitar line as filtered through an ’80s pop sensibility, with vocals that are equal parts cooing sex kitten and retro soul songbird."

Katherine St Asaph, a writer of "Pop Dust", wrote that "her vocals are serviceable and better" and that the song "is neither to alienate fans or placate those with words for Come Away With Me. It’s what a Norah Jones record would sound like in the current alt-pop climate, where breezy does better than torchy." A lyric video for the track was released on March 5, 2012. The official music video, directed by Isaiah Seret, premiered on VH1 on April 6, 2012. According to "Under the Gun" the video features Jones crooning about the feeling of being in love against visuals of simple elegance and grace. Jones told VH1. It’s more like a murder-thriller. A thriller!"
