I had been working on this song for about two years by the time I finally put it to tape. It's a pretty straightforward number I wrote for my friend Annelise Dekker- a lovely young lady who let me sleep on the floor of her USC dorm room when I was homeless in Los Angeles a couple years ago. We would ride around all night looking for action and I found myself developing a distaste for all the industry-types in Hollywood, everybody thinking they were so much better than us.
It reached the breaking point when I watched her offer up her heart to this singer who really couldn't care less and used her for what he could. What started as a love song ended up as a statement of disgust with this society that didn't see what I did in this girl...thus the line "they don't want you but, I do."
- Now go learn more about the group, check out some songs from the CD and see if you spot something rather interesting about the band.
