The liner notes for Teena's concept album describe a girl named "Pity" who wanted to be green "because she'd been all the other colors before." Besides "since she hadn't seen any green people before, maybe she wouldn't run into any stereotypes and prejudices this time." This was Teena's least popular (sales-wise) major-label release, though it was way ahead of its time and even listed in Chuck Eddy's book Stairway to Hell: The 500 Best Heavy Metal Albums in the Universe at #9. Teena also doesn't perform songs from this album in concert. She dedicated it to Gweneviere (Sureal Cartier & Say-d Michelline) "in hopes that your dreams will bring you much joy."

Thanks to Anthony T. Carr for deciphering those personnel names/icons for me! :)
