The song Transparent Dog is about a transparent cat.
Touch My Feeliings is about Vietnam.
Lightwind organized the somewhat successful Million Worm March of 2006.
In 1999 member Matt Wainwright conquered his crippling addiction to gas station burritos.

Lightwind belong to a burgeoning religious sect known as "The Incredible Church of Gary" which celebrates the wisdom of Jesus' neglected/challenged brother, Gary Christ.

In 2003 Lightwind founded the organization "Drivers Against Drunk Mothers."

Lightwind was the short-lived attempt by 4Shadows to cash in on the Christian rock craze that was sweeping the airwaves in a subset of certain highly lucrative markets, but sadly penetration was never achieved.
