All I
Wanna do is
Live in ectascy
I know what's best for me
I can't help it
It's this hopeless itch
I just wanna feel (wanna feel)
Purple Yellow Red and Blue
When I grow up I wanna be
A movie star or on TV
'Cause workin' just don't work for me
But I can't focus feeling hopeless
So I'll just sit back, try to relieve
All I
Wanna do is
Live in ectascy
I know what's best for me
I can't help it
It's this hopeless itch
I just wanna feel (wanna feel)
Purple Yellow Red and Blue
When I grow up I wanna be
A rich-kid born celebrity
It's not greed, but necessity
Now I don't focus on the hopeless
When I look out it's only for me
All I
Wanna do is
Live in ectascy
I know what's best for me
I can't help it
It's this hopeless itch
I just wanna feel (wanna feel)
Purple Yellow Red and Blue
I just
Wanna be evil

Purple Yellow Red and Blue
All that I needed
Is something to believe in
Because everything just falls in place like that
All that I needed
Is something to believe in
Because everything just falls in place like that


‘Purple Yellow Red and Blue’ by Portugal. The Man
Songwriters: John Baldwin Gourley / Brian Joseph Burton


“Purple Yellow Red and Blue,” Evil Friends second single, talks about drugs and living an intense life. The track is featured on soccer game FIFA 14’ssoundtrack.

The narrator begins to grow dissatisfied and keeps wanting more and more, which is shown, he’s indulging in a lifestyle with no judgment or punishment from a higher being, but now is unsure of his purpose or what he should do other than doing things that make him happy, or feeling “purple yellow red and blue.” “Purple Yellow Red and Blue” is the climax to the album’s narrative.

Portugal. The Man is an American rock band from Wasilla, Alaska, currently based in Portland, Oregon. The group consists of John Baldwin Gourley, Zach Carothers, Kyle O'Quin, Jason Sechrist, Eric Howk and Zoe Manville. Gourley and Carothers met and began playing music together in 2001 at Wasilla High School.

The group's first two albums, from 2006 and 2007, were released on Fearless Records; they moved to Atlantic Records in 2010. On January 28, 2018, the band won "Best Pop Duo/Group Performance" for their biggest hit song "Feel It Still" at the 60th Annual Grammy Awards.

The band's name is based on the idea of David Bowie's "bigger than life" fame. They wanted the band to have a bigger-than-life feel but did not want to name it after one of their members. "A country is a group of people," guitar player and vocalist John Gourley explains. "With Portugal, it just ended up being the first country that came to mind. The band's name is 'Portugal'. The period is stating that, and 'The Man' states that it's just one person" (any one of the band members). The name has a more personal meaning as well: Portugal. The Man was going to be the name of a book that Gourley had planned to write about his father and his many adventures.

I’m (I am?) a self-taught artist, originally from the north suburbs of Chicago (also known as John Hughes' America). Born in 1984, I started painting in 2017 and began to take it somewhat seriously in 2019. I currently reside in rural Montana and live a secluded life with my three dogs - Pebbles (a.k.a. Jaws, Brandy, Fang), Bam Bam (a.k.a. Scrat, Dinki-Di, Trash Panda, Dug), and Mystique (a.k.a. Lady), and five cats - Burglekutt (a.k.a. Ghostmouse Makah), Vohnkar! (a.k.a. Storm Shadow, Grogu), Falkor (a.k.a. Moro, The Mummy's Kryptonite, Wendigo, BFC), Nibbler (a.k.a. Cobblepot), and Meegosh (a.k.a. Lenny). Part of the preface to the 'Complete Works of Emily Dickinson helps sum me up as a person and an artist: "The verses of Emily Dickinson belong emphatically to what Emerson long since called ‘the Poetry of the Portfolio,’ something produced absolutely without the thought of publication, and solely by way of expression of the writer's own mind. Such verse must inevitably forfeit whatever advantage lies in the discipline of public criticism and the enforced conformity to accepted ways. On the other hand, it may often gain something through the habit of freedom and unconventional utterance of daring thoughts. In the case of the present author, there was no choice in the matter; she must write thus, or not at all. A recluse by temperament and habit, literally spending years without settling her foot beyond the doorstep, and many more years during which her walks were strictly limited to her father's grounds, she habitually concealed her mind, like her person, from all but a few friends; and it was with great difficulty that she was persuaded to print during her lifetime, three or four poems. Yet she wrote verses in great abundance; and though brought curiosity indifferent to all conventional rules, had yet a rigorous literary standard of her own, and often altered a word many times to suit an ear which had its own tenacious fastidiousness." -Thomas Wentworth Higginson "Not bad... you say this is your first lesson?" "Yes, but my father was an *art collector*, so…"
