Produced by Butch Vig and mixed by Alan Moulder, Wasting Light was recorded entirely on analog tape in the garage of Grohl s home in California s San Fernando Valley. The no computers/no software back to basics approach has resulted in arguably the strongest and most cohesive effort of the band s 15-year-plus career: From first single Rope to the frenetic opener Bridge Burning to the beautifully bipolar These Days to stunning guest spots from Bob Mould ( Dear Rosemary") and Krist Novoselic ("I Should Have Known"), Wasting Light is a singular triumph: a band that s headlined arenas, stadiums and festivals the world over stripping itself down to the bare essentials and coming up with a world class band s finest hour.

"Big Empty"

drivin' faster in my car
falling farther from just what we are
smoke a cigarette and lie some more
these conversations kill
falling faster in my car

time to take her home
her dizzy head is conscience laden
time to take a ride
it leaves today no conversation
time to take her home
her dizzy head is conscience laden
time to wait too long
to wait too long
these conversations kill

to much walkin', shoes worn thin
too much trippin' and my soul's worn thin
time to catch a ride
it leaves today, her name is what it means
to much walkin', shoe's worn thin

Stone Temple Pilots - Big Empty (Acoustic)

Jane Says is a song by Jane’s Addiction, written by Perry Farrell and Eric Avery in late 1985 or early 1986. It is about their friend and former roommate Jane Bainter and her struggles with drugs, life and love. The first known recording of this song is from a demo recording session in January 1986 at Radio Tokyo in Los Angeles, CA.

Jane says
I’m done with Sergio
He treat me like a rag-doll
She hides
The television
Says “I don’t owe him nothing,
But if he comes back again
Tell him to wait right here for me
Or,
Try again tomorrow”

I’m gonna kick tomorrow…
I’m gonna kick tomorrow…

She get mad
Starts to cry
Take a swing man
She can’t hit!
She don’t mean no harm
She just don’t know… (don’t know, don’t know)
What else to do about it

Jane says
Have you seen my wig around?
I feel naked without it”
She knows
They all want her to go
That’s ok man
She don’t like them anyway
Jane says she’s going away to Spain
When she gets her money saved
She’s gonna start tomorrow

I’m gonna kick tomorrow…
Gonna kick tomorrow…

Jane goes
To the store at 8:00
She walks up on St. Andrew’s
She waits and gets her dinner there
She pulls her dinner from her pocket
Jane says she’s never been in love – no
She don’t know what it is
Only knows if someone wants her

I want them if they want me
I only know they want me…

She get mad
And starts to cry
Take a swing man
She can’t hit!
She don’t mean no harm
She just don’t know… (don’t know, don’t know)
What else to do about it

Jane says…
Jane says…


In 1997, a music video was created for the live version of Jane Says that appears on the Kettle Whistle album. While the audio is from a Lollapalooza concert on July 24, 1991 at the Irvine Meadows Amphitheater in Irvine, CA and features Eric Avery on bass, video footage is from their October 31, 1997 concert at Hammerstein Ballroom in New York, NY featuring Flea on bass.
