Best Friend Lyrics


Quiet down now, hush hush my friend
Quiet down now, hush hush my friend
When all the others left, when all the others left
When all the others left, when all the othersI knew you'd stick around, come here now
I knew you'd stick around, come here now
When all the others talked, when all the others talked
When all the others talked, when all the othersYou'd always been my habit now
Colored bees, and stomach aches
Your friends in need, and lovers quakes
My best friend, my, my very best friendMy best friend, my, she never left my side
So come here now sit quiet down come here now sit
So lie down now, quiet down friend
Quiet down now, quiet down friendWhen all the others left, when all the others left
When all the others left, when all the others
I knew you'd stick around, come here now
Come here now sit, so come here nowWhen all the others talked, when all the others talked
When all the others talked, when all the others
You'd always been my habit now

Colored bees and stomach achesYours friends in need, and lovers quakes
My best friend, my, my very best friend
My best friend, my, she never left my side
So lie down now, quiet down friendLie down now, lie down now sit
My side so lie down and fight to find
My side so lie down and fight for my
(Quiet down now, hush hush my friend)
My side to lie down be good for my
(Come here now, come here now sit)My side to lie down be good for my
Quiet down now, hush hush my friend
Come here now, come here now sit
When all the others left, I knew you'd stick around
When all the others talked, I knew you'd stick aroundLie down now, lie down my friend
Lie down now, hush hush my friend
My best friend, my, my very best friend
My best friend, my, my very best friend

Candlebox is a rock band from Seattle, Washington. Formed in December 1991, they originally named the band Uncle Duke and later changed it as a tribute to a song by Midnight Oil. They were sometimes looked down upon by grunge fans for their style, which was considered by many to be a derivative version of true grunge, and their commercial success suffered as a result. Despite this, the band played the Seattle club circuit during the early 1990s to the many of the same fans who had supported many of the bands that had come immediately before them. The members did not consider Candlebox to be a grunge band however; they viewed themselves as a rock and roll band more than anything. Nevertheless, Candlebox had sold more than 4 million copies of their self-titled debut which, after many months of gaining momentum, peaked at number 7 on Billboard's album charts. Their follow up album, Lucy, was certified as platinum. Their third and last album was Happy Pills, which was released in 1998. Candlebox was the first successful act on Madonna's Maverick Records, which went on to sign Alanis Morissette, Deftones, and Prodigy.

Candlebox was known for an explosive live show and throughout their 8 year career, they toured with such bands as Living Colour, The Flaming Lips, Our Lady Peace, Rush, Henry Rollins, and Metallica. They were also a featured band on the main-stage at Woodstock '94 and made repeat live performances on the David Letterman show.

They are best known for the singles "Change", "You", "Far Behind" and "Simple Lessons". "Far Behind" entered Billboard's Top 20 in July of 1993 and didn't drop off the charts until January of 1994. The videos for "Far Behind" and "You" were in seemingly perpetual rotation on MTV and became two of the most requested videos of 1993.

Drummer Scott Mercado left the band in 1997 and was replaced by former Pearl Jam member Dave Krusen. Krusen later left the band in 1999 and was replaced by Shannon Larkin of Ugly Kid Joe. Bardi Martin also left the band that year, and was replaced by Rob Reddick (formerly of Dig). The band split in year 2000.

As of 2005, singer Kevin Martin is currently recording and performing as the leader of The Hiwatts. Peter Klett is currently recording and performing as the leader of redlightmusic.

In 2006, Candlebox has reunited with their original line-up. They went on a three-month North American tour beginning on July 1st of the same year. This marks their first collaboration since 1996.

In 2008, Candlebox released their fourth studio album called "Into the sun". This meant their return since 1998's Happy Pills. Also, they released a Live album called "Alive in Seattle" which includes tracks from all their past albums.
