Biography

The band formed by Jeff Ament, Bruce Fairweather and Stone Gossard following [a=Green River] splitting up. They received a lot of attention in Seattle and the beginnings of international interest with the 'Shine' EP. However, as they prepared to release their major label, debut album, the 'Apple', lead singer Andrew Wood overdosed on heroin and died, leaving the band in tatters. Stone and Jeff joined with [a=Soundgarden]'s Matt Cameron and Chris Cornell (Andy's roommate) to record the '[a=Temple Of The Dog]' tribute album, which also featured a young Eddie Vedder on some of the tracks. This led, in turn, to the formation of [a=Pearl Jam].

LYRICS

San Francisco, where the flowers bloom in spring
I said, fade to winter - and see what disease brings
Augustino, with his eyes once a shining sea
I said he's half a shadow - God don't let that be me
I'm a Stardog Champion
West Virginia, that's where my father lies
He was a wartime hero, the kind that money buys
It's a diamond bracelet, for my mommy's memory
That's all she wrote boy - that's all she wrote for me

I'm a Stardog Champion
I'm a Stardog
That's right

And the children
They used to sing of love
With Grace
From the Lord above
I said the children they used to sing out loud
Sing it loud
