Jane's Addiction managed to pull themselves together again for a time and put out Strays in 2003. Their music always painted an image of L.A street fight in progress in my mind. The song "Just Because" is no different. The song ripples with energy, and Dave Navarro's guitar gets the pulse racing. You can check out the video over at IFILM.

Perry Farrell's explanation of the song (via a VH1 interview):
The song is about doing things "just because." You’ll notice that you’ll get a card around Christmas, but never any other time of the year "just because." We wanted to plant the seed of doing little random acts of love "just because."

"If I were you
I'd better watch out
When was the last time
You did anything
Not for me
Or anyone else

Just because
Just because

Yeah
Oh, you really should have known
hey you
You really should have known

Just because
Just because

You've got the most
Ahh, but nobody loves you
Nobody has to

When we first met
And we passed around gifts
That was a long time, ago
And you're feeling fit ..."
