The story of Everclear begins with the story of front man
Art Alexakis. Art grew up in the projects of Santa Monica.
Abandoned by his father and living in poverty, he was very
troubled. Growing up in the "dark 70's" he was highly
exposed to drugs, in fact he lost a girlfriend and a
brother, due to heroin. Art himself almost died from a
cocaine overdose when he was a teen.
Like many punk stars, Art refers to himself as having a bad
attitude, when referring to his teens. He would have done
any drug on the table and even tried to commit suicide at
one point, by jumping off of a Santa Monica pier. Lucky for
Art, he found the wonderful instrument we call the guitar,
when he was 15. Eventually he quit drugs and threw himself
into his music.

------ About the song Wonderful performed by Everclear
it's like hearing nice words from someone older just to ease the pains and disastrous probabilities that would happen so you dont think of it negatively. the lies adults tell when we were younger. there's always that monster somewhere so we couldnt sleep. and sometimes they look like our parents. you could not just figure it that they could be that ugly when you were six because everything they told you was wonderful.

i lost my brother when i was 12 also... he was Arts age and grew up in LOS ANGELES also.
Anyway i went and seen EverClear at Magic Mountain , who would of believed. it was the best so far , and i go to meet ART, my wife and kids got to meet his wife and their baby.
they played some new songs and if you liked sparkle and fade , and the new stuff , you're gonna love the new new stuff . Everclear is still rockin strong.
I don't want to Label Everclear , but just check it out.
keep on rockin in the free world.

------ About the song Wonderful performed by Everclear
It's like that the singer is talking to the youth version of himself about what he feels when he looks back at his childhood and what he felt when he was a child. Almost exactly what I went through when I heard promises from my parents when my feelings got hurt.
Great song!

------ About the song Santa Monica performed by Everclear
This song rocks the fuck out. I am happy that the dude who posted before me, who got hurt in Iraq, can listen to this song and find peace. I think that is what music is all about: finding peace with yourself. Thank you sir, for putting your life on the line for all us here back home, and I hope one day you too can swim out past the breakers and watch the world die.

------ About the song Santa Monica performed by Everclear
My buddy and I are going through some medical treatment for injuries we sustained in Fallujah Iraq an dwe heard the song come on the radio. It is an older song but one of my favorites because my injuries prevent me from surfing anymore, but that is exactly what I used to do when things got crapy before my injury, sometimes I would just go out to the blow hole in my town and swim out waiting for for my set and nothing else mattered. I left everything else behind me. It really took me back a few years. I love to hear the accoustic version. sweet-

------ About the song Santa Monica performed by Everclear
Thus, to me, is one of the greatest songs ever. I love and I can't believe I'm the 1st reviewer. Here's why. I've been best friends with this girl for a year. And I've seen.her throug family friends since we were 6 and now 17 and we've been bestfriends for almost a year and she wants me. I really like her, but I can't. Too much is ahead. This song helps me. On another note she use to always tell me her boyfriends and I'm not a fall back plan.

i know exactly how it feels. my parents are still togeather but i still remember them arguin an a still hear it now, i woke up other morning to them arguing and this song was playing in my head t drown it out. it relly means a lot to me
This is a great and touching sogs, a lot like all the other songs by Art, it is real life, the little pain, joy, happiness, redemption basicallya little bit of all the emotions in life wrapped up in a song. I think we all can relate unless you're perfect and all you friends and famlily is perfect otherwise you have to feel him and his music or your not being honest with yourself!
i can definitely relate | Reviewer: Xenas
------ About the song Wonderful performed by Everclear
i can definitely relate to this song because even though i had a pretty awesome childhood, i still had to hear my mom and dad fighting all the time, even over the dumbest thing. i wish everything could go back to the way it was before they argued all the time. i never really let it affect me that much because i was so used to it, but i can understand how it feels to go through things like that, i have a friend that went through her parent's divorce and i know how she must have felt.

When i first listened to this song it made me wanna hear it over and over again coz i can relate to it everclear is the best and still I wana hear this wonderful song
Jerry Garcia had more talent in his missing finger than your entire band of douchebags. Pretty pathetic to have to write a lame ass song dissing a dead man. Jerry accomplished more musically in 1967 alone than you fuckwads could in 7 lifetimes.
the songs that they have on their albums are so wonderful that i listen to them all day!!
they are an insperation to music.
