about

I remember writing the riffs on my acoustic guitar, and just strumming it quietly night after night. It just felt so sweet to play...warm and fuzzy. I could not figure out a poem to do it justice. Then, while listening to Beck's "Mellow Gold", I was inspired by "Nightmare Hippy Girl". I scribbled the lyrics on a napkin in my truck. (We all know someone who could be the main character in this song.) That heavy breakdown at the end wrote itself. I asked Brad Athey if he'd like to play a violin solo on it. Not a normal violin - but violin "from Hell!!". I was going to slap some Hendrix distortion on the fiddle afterward, and Brad beat me to it!! That solo blows my mind every time I hear it.

lyrics

When the day breaks, she sings to the Moon

sings a song that ends too soon

and when the day is done

she blows kisses to the sun

and she doesn't even know it...When she smiles, flowers bloom

colours which have No Name

Her Dreams paint the World

colours which have No Name

And she doesn't even know it...
