Iris by The Goo Goo Dolls
In 1998, it ruled the airwaves. Today, it still feels timeless.
In this episode of Allison Unchained, Allison Hagendorf dives into the real story behind “Iris” by The Goo Goo Dolls—a love song, a confession, and an anthem that never lets go.
Written for the City of Angels soundtrack, the song was inspired by Nicolas Cage’s character—an angel willing to give up everything just to feel human, to love, and to be seen.
It’s a reminder of what it means to be known, to be felt, and to risk everything just to connect.
