Goodnight Elisabeth - Guess it's Christmas alternative and Adam explanation

Song: Goodnight Elisabeth
Where: Bimbo's 365 Club, San Francisco, CA
When: October 27 , 2003 (time mark 15:20)

From Adam Duritz from a concert at Bimbo's 365 Club in San Francisco, October 27, 2003

"I should tell you this story, because it has to do with this song because

I had this friend Betsy and I had been begging her to go out with me for like a year, 

and every time I saw her I'd ask her "come on" and she said no.

and then we had this gig here that night.

and her friends were leaving and she decided to stay

and we went up to her house in Berkeley 

she had a big, a big boulder behind the house

and we went up and sat on the boulder all night long, and any ways.

It was very nice, I was just remembering a really dumb joke she told me

It was like two in morning and we were sitting on this enormous rock behind her house

and I said man this is so cool, I wanna rock

and she goes Adam, you do rock

So anyways she ended up being my girlfriend, not because of jokes like that

and I thought that my life had just completely come to fruit

you know we had a successful band 

we had signed a record contract

our record was coming out

we went out on tour

I had a great girlfriend

but Christmas it was all, it was all gone

being away on the road just screwed the whole thing up

and so I came home at Christmas, very bitter and wrote this song

I think it was the first song written for Recovering the Satellites 

but I wrote it that Christmas

and its called Goodnight Elisabeth"

Sullivan Street is a beautiful song off of the August and Everything After album.
For me Sullivan Street is the metaphorical road that I took on the way home after being out with my friends. It was a great time in that it was the first time I experienced youthful freedom. In the calm early morning hours when I would  come home, the mode of this song playing on the radio always seemed to hit the right chords.

Song: Miami
Where: Manchester Evening News Arena, Manchester, England
When: May 11, 2009

From Adam Duritz from a concert at Manchester, England, May 11, 2009

"I was in love with this girl who was far away. I was on tour. 

She was on the other side of the world 

and I hadn’t seen her in a long time 

and she was coming to see me 

and I was at the airport waiting for her 

and I was so in love

and then all the sudden it was like a chunk of my life just evaporated 

and I couldn't remember myself, her, all that time 

I mean I remembered that it happened 

but it was a like a story somebody told me not anything that I felt anything for her

and I knew that meant that it would be over

I didn't know who she was anymore

and these things and you have everything at once

then you throw it all away

and you can’t keep it all in here 

I don’t understand that, it just happens, to me

This time it happened on a beautiful sunny night on the southeastern tip of America

I threw away something that should have never have thrown away

In a city called Miami"
