LAMONT’S MUSIC NOTES SEPTEMBER 9, 2019- TWENTY FIVE YEARS AGO STP RELEASED THE SINGLE ‘INTERSTATE LOVE SONG.’
SCOTT WEILAND WROTE THIS SONG ABOUT HIS RELATIONSHIP PROBLEMS AND HIS GROWING HEROIN ADDICTION. WHEN STP WENT TO ATLANTA TO RECORD THE ALBUM ‘PURPLE’ HE PROMISED HIS FIANCÉ JANINA CASTANEDA HE WOULD STAY CLEAN. HE DIDN’T KEEP HIS PROMISE AND HE FELT LIKE A REAL S***HOLE WHEN HE WAS TELLING HER ON THE PHONE THAT EVERYTHING WAS ALRIGHT.
THE SONG IS WRITTEN FROM JANINA’S PERSPECTIVE, WITH WEILAND IMAGINING HER SEEING RIGHT THROUGH HIS LIES.
HERE’S THE OFFICIAL VIDEO FOR ‘INTERSTATE LOVE SONG’
