Okay, I wanted to let all of you know the real meaning of this really sad song.
It is about a 7 year old girl named Katie Flynn.
She was the flower girl in her aunts wedding and was killed on their way home after the wedding, July 1, 2005. A drunk driver crashed head on into their limo after driving two miles the wrong way on the Meadowbrook Parkway. The limo driver Stan Rabinowitz was also killed.
Stan was killed on impact, Katie was decapitated. Katie’s mother sat on the side of the high way cradling her daughters severed head.
If you don’t see how this song was a tribute to Katie and her family and a poster against drunk driving, I don’t know what to tell you. Brand New is from Long Island, NY and clearly as a local band was affected and moved by their story.
Listen to this song with this story in mind and I hope you’ll understand.
