Finger Eleven is an alternative rock band that has earned a devoted following. Their first album, Letters From Chutney, was recorded under the name Rainbow Butt Monkeys, with money won from a rock band search contest on local radio. They changed their name to Finger Eleven for their breakthrough Tip, released on Mercury Records in Canada and re-released by Wind-Up Records in the United States in 1998. The name Finger Eleven comes from an earlier version of the song Thin Spirits from the album Tip. Lead singer, Scott Anderson explains: "when everything is pushing you in one direction and your instinct drives you in another--that’s finger eleven." A year later, drummer Rob Gommerman left the band and was replaced by Rich Beddoe.

Window Song Lyrics

Finger Eleven

All The Windows Are Playing Their Game
Where I Won't See Outside Again
Til I Write All The Fog Away
I'm Putting Words In Their Place
Between Me And The Window's Pane
From My Inarticulate Brain
But All Of The Fog Is Erased
When I Write All The Words That I Never Said
To You

Now The Impulse Won't Go Away
"distracted By Something?" You'd Say
Cause You Don't See Anything
It's Just Between Windows And Me
Wait Til It Rains Again
And I Write All The Words That I Never Said
To You

Will You Try To Read These Lines?
Focus Hard And Give It Time
Who You Are In My Life
Reads As The Water Washes

Now The Dirt On The Window Is Showing
I Should Have Drawn Something Instead
The Dirt On The Window Is Showing
I Should Never Have Written My Head
I Should Never Have Written What I Never Said
To You
