Band Name Origins:
- I heard that the members of the band were having a hard time picking a name. They asked REM frontman Michael Stipe to help out, and he came up with Concrete Blonde-something both hard and soft, like their music. Submitted by: Bossk
- The name was given to them by Michael Stipe of R.E.M. - it is supposed to be a kind of self-contradiction, concrete being hard and blonde being soft. Submitted by: JayS

Nonsensical Lyrics:
"Still In Hollywood"
The Nonsensical Lyrics: And on the bus today,
I met the queen of L.A. at least she said she was, and who am I to say? She was sixty-five and full of life, she had purple painted cheeks and glitter on her eyes. And the troll in the corner, I flipped him a quarter and he looked at me and smiled. He wasn't abused, he wasn't confused, he had nothing to gain and less to lose in Hollywood. Why They're Nonsensical: Ok, let's hope the 65 year old still isn't the queen of L.A. It sounds like she'd look kind of scary. And if I met a troll on a bus, I'd be running. Forget the quarter. And of course he wasn't confused. Who'd be confused after receiving a quarter anyway?
