Lyrics~

She's open-minded, tell her for confidin'
She's got the secret formula to get her way
I know you think about it everyday
She's open-minded, 'fore you sit beside her

She don't like the rain, got fish for brains, whole lotta trouble gonna come your way
She don't like the rain, has fish for brains, whole lotta trouble gonna come your way

She's open-minded, tell her for confidin'
She's got the secret formula to get her way
I know you think about it everyday
She's open-minded, tell her for confidin'

open-minded

She don't like the rain, got fish for brains, whole lotta trouble gonna come your way
She don't like the rain, has fish for brains, whole lotta trouble gonna come your way

Nope. It's The Dee Dee Dums. Kevin used to sing in a bluesier style with them, rather than his more dreamy, melodic one (and frankly better one) he has now. There's a video of him performing as The Dee Dee Dums on YouTube from about 2005-2006. I was surprised when I first saw it, because I though it was some other guy from the band that was singing, but it was actually Kevin.

The others would probably be 'Into the Jungle' and 'The Serpentine', which are on YouTube already. Unless they have something we don't know about?

@captainbeastazoid7084

2y↑3

This is dope. And it's funny how "of-it's-time" it is. This was right around the time that "The White Stripes" and "Wolfmother" came out and every two-bit indie band was releasing music that sounded like those bands. It was the dominant indie rock style of 2002ish to 2006ish.

Any way, even though this sounds awesome, I def prefer Half Glass Full of Wine. It's much more unique. Better melody and lyrics. I'm glad KP had to foresight to know that this track had the potential to be a bit better.

@tylenolx
