No One Can Understand (the Mind of a Woman)
No One Can Understand (the Mind of a Woman) Year: 2008 Album: SADHU. Instruments and arrangements by JB Miller. Genre: Alternative
After a beautiful night out, on our wedding anniversary, I accidentally bumped her with the front door on the way back into the house. She had a ‘melt-down’. Couldn’t believe it. I then spent the rest of the night and morning on the outside balcony writing this song. It was completed and recorded by sunrise the next day.
