*First line is the band name 1970. This band's original name was Chocolate Hair. Their record label's legal department told them to change it because it could be seen as having racist overtones. So, they changed their name to the name of a mountain outside Boulder, Colorado. A critic called this song a "bewitching single." The song’s lyrics were written about the lead singer's girlfriend, who had green eyes. The main riff came from a scale exercise in a music theory book.
