Third Eye Blind - Semi-Charmed Life



"Semi-Charmed Life" is a song by American rock band Third Eye Blind from their eponymous debut studio album (1997).


It was released to radio as the lead single from the album on February 18, 1997, by Elektra Records. Frontman Stephan Jenkins is credited as the sole writer of the song, although guitarist Kevin Cadogan has disputed the song's authorship through litigation.


Production on the song was helmed by Jenkins and Eric Valentine. According to Jenkins, the song is about a crystal meth addiction and the feeling that "your life is always about to change and never be reliable."
