Before the album was recorded, Vue released "The Death Of A Girl EP" (2000) with GSL Records. The debut album, released with Sub Pop, followed shortly after, titled "Vue". In 2001, "Find Your Home", the band's second album was released. This features "Pictures Of Me", which was released as a UK only single in 2002.
The band signed to RCA after this, and released the "Babies Are For Petting" EP in 2003. Their third album, "Down For Whatever" was released the same year. In May 2004, the band recorded two more songs, as well as an acoustic version of one of these tracks, supposedly "the latest Vue material in existence".
The three final members of the Vue have formed a new band called Bellavista.

Vue Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
On the way to your home?
On the way to your home
On the way to your home
Did you give her the book ?
Wipe the paint from her eye?
And her hands are cold now to me
We were just on the bus for the fun
And we shouldn't be late
And all the children speak to me now
And I just can't wait
I said hey hey hey now love
Find your home
Oh, now love find your home
Oh love won't you find your home
Hey hey
Did you see the red girl,
On the way to your home?
On the way to your home
'Cause I don't think that you're home
We were just on the bus for the fun
And we shouldn't be late
And all the children speak to me now
And I just can't wait
I said hey hey hey now love
Find your home
Oh now love find your home
Oh love won't you find your home
Hey hey... Oh now lover won't you find your home. . .Well I don't think that you're home (x2) Hey Hey
The lyrics of Vue's song "Find Your Home" are quite poetic and abstract, but they seem to tell a story about a boy who meets a red girl on his way home. There is a sense of detachment and indirection in the lyrics, as if the boy is observing the scene from a distance or through a dream. He asks if the girl has been given a book and had paint wiped from her eye, suggesting she might be lost or in need of help. He also mentions that her hands are cold, which could mean she is scared or vulnerable.
The boy and the girl seem to be riding a bus together, perhaps as part of a school trip or a spontaneous adventure. There is a feeling of excitement and anticipation in the air, as the children speak to the boy and he can't wait for something to happen. The chorus of the song is a plea for the red girl (or love, as an abstract concept) to find her home, to belong somewhere and feel safe. The repetition of the phrase "on the way to your home" adds to the sense of journey and possibility in the song, as if the characters are constantly searching for their place in the world.
Overall, "Find Your Home" is a hauntingly beautiful song that captures the emotions and experiences of youth in a gentle and evocative way. It invites the listener to reflect on their own search for belonging and meaning, and to find solace in the company of others who might be on the same path.

Have you seen the red girl
Have you met someone who you cannot forget
On the way to your home?
On the path towards where you want to be
Did you give her the book ?
Did you share your knowledge with her
Wipe the paint from her eye?
Help her remove the pain from her life
And her hands are cold now to me
And she seems distant from me now
I thought the paint was dry
I thought her problems were solved
We were just on the bus for the fun
We were just following the flow of life
And we shouldn't be late
And we shouldn't be complacent
And all the children speak to me now
And all the innocence of the world opens up to me
And I just can't wait
And I am thrilled to live every moment
I said hey hey hey now love
I said listen my friend
Find your home
Find your true purpose in life
Oh, now love find your home
Oh my friend, find where you truly belong
Oh love won't you find your home
Oh please find your true place in the world
Hey hey
Listen now
Did you see the red girl,
Did you meet that unforgettable person
On the way to your home?
On the path towards where you want to be
'Cause I don't think that you're home
Because I don't think you have found your true place yet
Hey Hey
Listen now
Oh now lover won't you find your home. . .
Oh my friend, please find your true purpose in life
Well I don't think that you're home (x2)
Well, I believe you haven't found the place where you truly belong
