A riff-dependent tune that features a swirling guitar part that plays counter to the melody of the chorus, using an Eight Tone Spanish Scale.
Artist picture
Eljam’s music is driven by powerful lyrics and equally robust guitar riffs. Victor McGhee wrote most of the lyrics and the general melodies for the tunes, with each band member usually writing his own part. Mike Wich played guitar, Billy Armstrong played bass and Paul Vourderis played drums. Victor also played rhythm guitar and was the lead singer, while Mike occasionally provided back-up vocals. Thanks to 2006 technology, Victor appears on this compilation from 2499 miles away in Phoenix, Arizona. His parts were recorded in Black Canyon City Studio. Due to circumstances beyond our control, an understudy (Mike) played all of the instruments. With respects to Billy’s massive bass lines, Paul’s innovative drum style and Victor’s Ovation-based acoustic rhythm guitar playing, Mike has tried to be as true as possible to the original performances of the original members of the band.

Story behind the song
The the end of the song makes me think: Electric Belly Dance Music
Lyrics
Breakdown Okay, here’s the lowdown: Do you want to be friends or Do ya just wanna say that ya knew me? You’re so confusing. One minute you’re you and then the next You go and hide behind a wall, oh… There a sign on the wall it says, ‘There’s no escape from love’. There a sign on the wall it says, ‘There’s no escape from love’. Okay, you had a breakdown But you know, you’ll be all right someday. And when that happens you’ll turn around and find All the loved ones you left behind. Baby, I know it’s crazy. I’m so close to you, But now I feel as if I never met you before oh…. There a sign on the wall it says, ‘There’s no escape from love’. There a sign on the wall it says, ‘There’s no escape from love’. There a sign on the wall it says, ‘There’s no escape from love’. There a sign on the wall it says, ‘There’s no escape from love’.
