    "Coriander Blues" is a working title, but I hope we keep it. I write lyrics, usually, based from word "sounds" first, if that makes sense. I was trying to come up with a word that would describe "blues," and "coriander" popped into my head. Which is strange...I didn't even really know what coriander was. So it was odd that I just thought of it all of a sudden. I did some internet-ing and I guess it can, to some, represent love, fidelity, and sometimes lust. Which I thought may be appropriate for the blues. Plus, I like the way it sounds. :) The song is meant to be based loosely on the feeling you get sometimes, as a musician, of playing your heart and with no one listening.

        I've seen that pose before... but usually I'll drop a dog or cat or something on the bed to pull him out of it... I guess in this case it's a good thing to leave him in his cave.
