Miss Lestrade Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 Oh, okay, I get it. It was probably about an old girlfriend. :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jedi Leo Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 Let´s not forget Anchorman confirmed Green Eyes is partly about Johnny...so it is officially also his song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
but a dream Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 Yeah the song is about an ex-gf and Jonny :nice: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
but a dream Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 I found a vid Min :D "Handsome and talented best friend" :nice: I can see myself in the crowd :laugh3: :love: Well it was written before he even met her so is bulls**t either way. :rolleyes: Sometimes he seems happy to admit it's about Jonny and sometimes he isn't. It was completely off the setlist back in 2003 because, and I quote, "it's written about the wrong person" I think 'the wrong person' he mentions is his ex-gf :thinking: And that it would have been awkward to be singing a song about that girl when he was seeing his wife. But anyway, we know it's Jonny that has stuck with him since his Uni days and known him for longer and is his best friend :heart: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But anyway, we know it's Jonny that has stuck with him since his Uni days and known him for longer and is his best friend :heart: I've always thought this mysterious "girl from America" he used to lump in was just a bit of a red herring so he didn't have to admit the song was completely about Jonny. He's only mentioned it being about her once or twice and it was in the vaguest terms. "Oh yeah she had Green Eyes and her name was....er...." *looks around desperately, spots chocolate wrapper* "...Cadbury" :uhoh: :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KissesBirds Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 As usual I was too short to see what happened on the ramp of love :embarassed: We need to get you some high-quality, 5-inch HO SHOES! :dance: I found a vid Min :D "Handsome and talented best friend" :nice: Uh, Min? Jonny was dancing really hard during this song. When he was on the main stage. I've noticed that he does that when he sees Jonnygirls in the audience. I think he was rocking out for you Min. They've known each other for what, 12 years? :heart: Chris said 15 to a fan according to her blog a few days ago. :love: . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris: Um...my first girlfriend...um, Sasha...Jones. Interviewer 3: And what about Green Eyes? Chris: I wrote it for my godmother when I was 16. Interviewer 4: And Green Eyes?

notlost92 Posted March 17, 2009 Share Posted March 17, 2009 So there we have it, it's about Jonny :P Well and we have the Oracle, of course! Green Eyes was written about an "American friend" yes but also about Jonny.
