White Houses (Vanessa Carlton song)
"White Houses" is a song written by American singer Vanessa Carlton and Stephan Jenkins (lead singer of Third Eye Blind), and recorded for Vanessa Carlton's second album ''Harmonium'' (2004). Produced by Jenkins, it was released as the album's first single in 2004.
==Production and composition==
"White Houses" is structured around a 4/4 time signature which ''Blender'' magazine has described as "bright" and "un-girly",〔Powers, Ann. ("Review — Vanessa Carlton: ''Harmonium''" ). ''Blender''. Retrieved June 10, 2006.〕 and is backed by an orchestral arrangement that ''PopMatters'' magazine said "would make Jim Steinman blush".〔Horan, Mark. ("Vanessa Carlton — ''Harmonium''" ). PopMatters. March 1, 2005. Retrieved June 10, 2006.〕 Carlton said of the song: "It's about jealousy, it's about losing your virginity, it's about living on your own. It's a story that most people can relate to ... It's really the journey of one girl and her perception of her environment and how she starts out as a wide-eyed person, but everyone gets hardened by life, but not necessarily to the point where you can't feel anymore." She has also said it is about "rites of passage."〔(People.com : The #1 Celebrity Site on the Web )〕 "White Houses" was the first song Carlton and Jenkins wrote together, and Lindsey Buckingham of the band Fleetwood Mac played acoustic guitar on the track after Jenkins met Buckingham, who was recording in the same building as Carlton, and invited him to listen to the song. Carlton said, "he just came in, played this great riff, recorded it and then he left. It all happened very fast, and turned out amazing." The song provided the inspiration for a charity project, (Building White Houses ). It began on November 9, 2004 and ended on December 31, 2005. Its aim was to raise money for Habitat for Humanity International.
