Question
Hi, I was just wondering what the name of the song is that is playing during the episode "Wrecked" when willow is sitting alone at the bar? All i could catch was the words 'unfamiliar waters'. Hope you can help!

Answer
Hey Lauren,

Are you sure the episode your thinking of is Wrecked? Wrecked is where Willow takes Dawn to Rack's and then they get in the car accident and Dawn slaps her. There is no scene in a bar.

I think you may be thinking of the previous episode Smashed, where Amy and Willow go to the Bronze and cause havoc with their magic. There is a scene where Amy is out dancing and Willow is alone at the bar talking to her olive in the martini. Is this the scene you are talking about?

If so, the artist playing is a band called Virgil, and the song playing while Willow is at the bar is called Parachute. The song playing just prior to Willow being at the bar, when she and Amy were playing pool is by Virgil as well, and it's called Vermillion Borders. But neither one have the lyric you mentioned.

Hope this is what you were looking for, if not, let me know.

**Here is some additional information:

Here is a youtube link to the song Vermillion Borders:

And here are the lyrics for the song Parachute, the song that is actually playing when she is sitting at the bar:

A lonely man leaps from a mountain town
I stop him as if he's half way down
Ask him what he's learned about the trip
He shyly smiles and moves his lip

A great day for a car crash
A pleasant day to make a change

Chorus:
The only thing left to do
Is pull on my parachute
It will take longer to land
But I can stand
And if I can count on you
To pull on your parachute
We will share time in the air
While we descend

Someone take away his gravity
He doesn't see he's plummeting
Gaining speed and twisting silently
Oh, he's sure to hit a street of trees

A great day for the cancer
A pleasant day to play it safe

Repeat Chorus

He is not an arrow
But he knows the rest of us know
That he'll fly and he'll try
And when he comes crashing
The answers will flash in our face

The only thing left to do
Is pull on my parachute
It will take longer to land
But I can stand
And if I can count on you
To pull on your parachute
We will share time in the air
I just care that you're aware
But they'll have to meet us there



**And here are the lyrics for Vermillion Borders:

I'm getting caught in the corners
Of her Vermilion Borders
She's moving backwards and forwards
And she's ugly when she's insecure
That makes her beautiful

Low Country Days
Oh, there's batgirl picking her hands
And ready to burst on her face
A rose colored freeway
Oh, there's fat curve
Covered in sand and dying of thirst
I'm water to the slaughter

Chorus:
I'm getting caught in the corners
Of her Vermilion Borders
She's moving backwards and forwards
And she's ugly when she's insecure
That makes her beautiful
That makes her beautiful

Low Country Wars
Oh, there's a demon she's drinking
And thinking of running away
I'm losing
Or am I winning
