The Freshmen (song)
"The Freshmen" is a song by American alternative rock group The Verve Pipe. The song was first featured, in acoustic style, on their 1992 album ''I've Suffered a Head Injury''. It was recorded a second time and released on the band's 1996 album ''Villains''. Later that year, the band recorded the song again, this time with producer Jack Joseph Puig,〔http://www.thevervepipe.com/music_lyrics2.html〕 for release as a single. The single was released on January 27, 1997.〔http://www.allmusic.com/album/freshmen-us-1-r337336〕 Subsequent pressings of ''Villains'' replaced the original album version with the single version. "The Freshmen" peaked at number 5 in the United States.
==Background and content==
According to the FAQ on "Verve Pipings", guitarist and lead singer Brian Vander Ark wrote the song in 1991 about the guilt he felt from his ex-girlfriend committing suicide.〔(Verve Pipeings FAQ )〕 He had previously said that in order to respect her family, he had told the public that the incident was entirely his poetic license.〔〔Carlini, Anne. (n.d.). "(Brian Vander Ark: What’s Lurking Underneath )." ''Exclusive Magazine.'' Retrieved October 28, 2007.〕
In later interviews, he confessed that the suicide of a girlfriend was based on his personal experience. However, during a visit to Gull Lake High School on March 12, 2012, Brian Vander Ark said that the abortion aspect of the story was largely fictional:
"At the time I was dating a girl in college. We broke up and my friend dated her and then I went out with her again. We went back and forth. From there I came up with the story of her getting pregnant and having an abortion," Vander Ark said. "It started though with, by the way the girl is fine and not a bad thing happened; it was just coming up with that story, and the inspiration is alive."〔(Brian Vander visits Gull Lake )〕
