I wonder if Ebin was a real person
He is and wasn’t happy with the song…idk what happened between him and Bradley but whatever it was Sublime turned it into an awesome song
Did you read the article? He wasn’t happy at first but grew to like it.
Thanks!
Looking more into the song, wow:
Ebin is named after a former classmate of Bradley Nowell’s from UC Santa Cruz. However, the lyrics to the song are entirely fictional and unrelated to the real Eben (Bradley misspelled his name), who was not at all a Nazi. In fact, he was Jewish! While Eben was initially disturbed by the song, especially because he believed that Bradley had stolen its melody from his song “Celebration,” he admired Bradley’s voice and eventually became a devoted Sublime fan, even growing to like the song “Ebin.”
The full story (told by Eben himself) can be read here:… …Eben Sterling
Eben Sterling is quoted a couple of paragraphs in the link below:
