      I think Vanessa Carlton is the background vocals in this song. Vanessa Carlton did a cover song duet of Joni Mitchell's Big Yellow Taxi with Counting Crows on this album.

    No one seems to be referring to the song, which is absolutely brilliant, one of the greatest pop songs I've ever heard. The song describes emotions and attitudes, things about American girls that are a helluva lot deeper than outward appearance and in a country of 300+ million people, there is an abundance of beautiful American girls, in all shapes and sizes.

      They are a very good band, but they are underappreciated and they don't necessarily fit in with the metal crowd or the country crowd. I think they have always had identity issues as a band because they never really fit in with what was going on in the mainstream at this time.

    Bet you didn't know Sheryl Crow does the backing vocals in this song.
    If you ask me, I think they should give her more credit ("feat. Sheryl Crow") considering that she does just about as much as Vanessa Carlton in Big Yellow Taxi.
    Anyways, this is an amazing song. =)

    She comes out on Fridays every time
    And stands out in a line
    I could've been anyone she'd seen
    She waits another week to fall apart,
    She couldnt make another day
    I wish it was anyone but me
    I could've been anyone you see
    She had something breakable just under her skin
    American girls all weather and noise
    Playing the changes for all of the boys
    Holding a candle up to my hand
    Making it feel so incredible
    She comes out of closets every night
    But then she locks herself away
    Where she could keep everything from me
    I could've been anyone you see
    She's nothing but porcelain underneath her skin
    American girls are weather and noise
    Playing the changes for all of the boys
    Holding a candle right up to my hand
    Making me feel so incredible
    Little shiver shaking me everyday
    But I could get this same thing anywhere
    So if she goes away, well, it's alright and I'm ok
    She said come back again tonight
    and I said I might I might I might
    She said well that's alright
    If it's alright, it's alright with you
    And it's alright if it's alright with me
    I waited for an hour last Friday night, she never came around
    She took almost everything from me
    I'm goin' through my closets, tryin' on her clothes almost everyday
    I could've been anyone you see
    I wish it was anyone but me
    There's nothin but pills and ashes under my skin
    American girls are weather and noise
    Playing the changes for all of the boys
    Holding a candle right up to my hand
    Making me feel so incredible
    If I made you cry, please tell me why
    I'll try again if you let me try
    American girls are feathers and cream
    Come into bed so edible
    American girls, oh American girls
    American girls, oh oh oh oh
    American girls, oh American girls
    American girls, oh oh oh oh
    You made me cry
    You made me cry
    You made me cry
    You made me cry
    Yeah, you made me cry
    You made me cry
    Hey miss American girl
