Story behind the song
*WARNING*
If you would rather enjoy this piece of art and have it come to mean something truly unique to you, do not read the backstory. Just as the band “Aerosmith” once criticized the music video industry of robbing fans from having their own visions of imagery associated to a song and supplanting it with some “official” footage, so too can knowing a songs backstory potentially come to rob it of having some special place and meaning for you.
Or both can exist. It’s all really subjective. Proceed with understanding.
Thank you,

The Official Backstory
"Golden Glo" is the brand name of a wine made in Truro, Nova Scotia. It was about $10 for 2 litres. It is cheap. It is technically an Apple Cider. Kids used to split on a bottle every once in a while to get drunk at parties on a low budget - usually two to four people splitting on it per bottle.
Sure, there were other cheap wines. "Kelly's" was often a favorite from people I knew, but Golden Glo was cheaper.
This is just a song happily remembering some of them days where everyone got together and had a good time.

Is it such a big crime
To have a couple of friends
Over to have a good time
Just a couple of blades
And a bottle of pills
If you're satisfied with cheap thrills
I just keep trying
But my tainted mind
Needs tainted wine
No matter how far I go
It's just not good enough!
I never wanted to be
I never wanted to show
I never puked on cheap wine
Bask in the after-glow
