Fairweather Friend Lyrics

Cover art for Fairweather Friend lyrics by Vanessa Carlton

Basically this song is a big fuck you to Steven Jenkins and is pretty much a reflection of the book The Year Of Magical Thinking by Joan Diddion that Vanessa has admitted to being inspired Vanessa. It ties into neuroscience and how the brain is lazy and that consitant thoughts create pathways of magical thinking and that you'll basically have the same brain patterns at the age of 20 to the time of your death. "you can only let so much reality in at one time and all the other you just create"

I believe the whole 'you can't change your brain pathways' concept has been refuted.
