Rosealia
"Rosealia" was the third single from this album. Written by singer and guitarist Kevin Griffin, the song is about a woman in an abusive relationship. The single peaked at #71 on the Billboard Hot 100. During a concert in Albuquerque on Monday, September 21, 2009, Kevin Griffin explained to the audience that while living for a short time in Santa Fe, NM he had a job waiting tables at The Pink Adobe restaurant. The restaurant's owner was a woman named Rosalea Murphy, and he wrote this song as a tribute to her.
