Brandy Alexander Lyrics
Far across the sea and land for her
The deep within my blood is sand until
I drink what makes me mad for her
Always gets me into trouble
But that's another matter
My Brandy Alexander
Is it my addiction to this curse within?
Silently I must confess this sin
tastes better after juice and gin
Always gets me into trouble
But that's another matter
oh that's another matter
Always gets me into trouble
but that's another matter
I drink what makes me mad for her
Always gets me into trouble
But that's another matter
oh that's another matter
(repeats)

So I don't know if this has anything to do with it but a major character in the Chuck Palahniuk book Invisible Monsters is a woman named Brandy Alexander. Anyone who has read the book will probably say it has nothing to do with it, but its a rabbit hole people could explore.

This song was actually the, I guess you could say, "remake" to a song by Feist also titled "Brandy Alexander".
The phrase "brandy alexander" is actually after the alcoholic drink "Brandy Alexander" that is made with none other than Brandy. Which is also where Chuck Palahniuk got his characters name from.
The song sung by Feist is the girls point of view, this versin by Ron Sexsmith is the guys point a view. I highly reccomeng everyone to check out Feist if you havent yet!!

i was at the 2010 olympiad show at the orpheum with feist and sexsmith, and they performed thier song together. they actually e-mailed each other back and forth to write this song.
