« Santa Monica » (в Европе с подзаголовком « Watch the World Die ») — песня американской рок- группы Everclear из их альбома 1995 года Sparkle and Fade . Песню написал солист группы Арт Алексакис . Хотя он не был коммерчески выпущен как сингл в Соединенных Штатах, радиостанции крутили "Santa Monica" достаточно, чтобы он достиг 29-го места в чарте Billboard Hot 100 Airplay и первого места в чарте Billboard Album Rock Tracks в течение трех недель в 1996 году. Он вошел в топ-40 хитов Австралии, Канады, Новой Зеландии и Великобритании; это сингл группы, занявший самые высокие места в чартах Австралии.
Предыстория и содержание
[ редактировать ]В интервью Songfacts в октябре 2003 года Алексакис объяснил песню:
I'm using a place where I grew up and palm trees as iconic references. It's what I grew up with. I grew up in a seaside town called Santa Monica, which is like L.A. but on the coast. I've lived in cold places and been in bad relationships, and I think everybody has a place in their mind that is like a safe haven. It's also about getting away from bad times ... the ending of something is also the beginning of something new, whether it's with someone or getting out of a bad job, a bad way of life or an abusive relationship.[2]
When Alexakis was a teenager, his girlfriend committed suicide; shortly thereafter, Alexakis attempted the same by jumping off the Santa Monica Pier in southern California.[3] Following the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001, the song was placed on the list of post-9/11 inappropriate titles distributed by Clear Channel Communications.[4][5]
