Mind GamesGavin Rossdale

Songwriter: John Lennon

We're playing those mind games together
Pushing barriers, planting seeds
Playing the mind guerrilla
Chanting the Mantra peace on earth
We all been playing mind games forever
Some kinda druid dudes lifting the veil
Doing the mind guerrilla
Some call it the search for the grail

Love is the answer and you know that for sure
Love is flower you got to let it, you got to let it grow

So keep on playing those mind games together
Faith in the future outta the now
You just can't beat on those mind guerrillas
Absolute elsewhere in the stones of your mind
Yeah we're playing those mind games forever
Projecting our images in space and in time

Yes is the answer and you know that for sure
Yes is the surrender you got to let it, you got to let it go

So keep on playing those mind games together
Doing the ritual dance inn the sun
Millions of mind guerrillas
Putting their soul power to the karmic wheel
Keep on playing those mind games forever
Raising the spirit of peace and love, not war

Gavin Rossdale

Vocalist/guitarist Gavin Rossdale was born in London, England on October 30, 1967. Gavin grew up in Kilburn, a north west section of London. His father was a general physician and his mother a model. His parents divorced when he was 12 and Gavin mainly lived with his father after that point. Gavin did not speak as child until he was 4 years old. Prior to that time his sister Soraya did all of the talking for him. At the age of 8 he spent almost an entire year in and out of hospitals due to chronic ear problems, but had recovered by age 9.

In his late teens, Gavin started singing and put together a pop band called Midnight (originally called The Heroes). They played some gigs in the UK and even opened for a the popular English act Big Country. Midnight was on the rise and the band landed themselves a record deal. Unfortunately the group was not successful only releasing a few singles. They proved in be more popular in Spain. In 1987, Midnight split and Gavin along with close friend and bandmate Sacha Puttnam continued on in the band The Little Dukes. Once again it did not work out. Frustrated, Rossdale decided to tread a new route by teaching himself to play the guitar.

Gavin’s next band would yield the success that he was looking. In 1992, Bush had formed under the original name Future Primitive and from there the road to success was a short one. Just three years after first forming, the band gained massive popularity in the US. It would take an additional 2 years before they would gain notarity in their home country of England.
