Good song
Great guitar solo
That solo is the reason I added an envelope filter to my pedal board.
You and many of us lol. I think I have it in a box somewhere
Always blew my mind she ended up married to Paul Simon. And then they had a big ol' domestic a couple years back!
I was obsessed with this group back when I was in high school/early college! Brings back some fun memories!
These guys are still rockin! Rest in peace Brad Hauser. You are missed.
Sounds like the 90's, was released in 1988.
While planning an 80s party, I’ve gotten the impression that the 80s we think of peaked and ended in 1986.
I don't know, I think it depends on what you consider the 80's. For example, there's a lot of dance stuff that started in the late 80's that continued into the 90's that I don't consider "90's" but the sound of this track is very 90's to me. Part of that could be because it was emerging in the US and we didn't start to hear it in Europe until the 90's
Love this track. Love the lyrics
I remember this video on the Windows 95 cd. Loved it then, love it now!
It was actually Good Times
Oh damn! Good memory!
Tbh I knew it was Edie Brickell, and that it wasn't What I Am, but didn't remember it was that song. Gun to my head I probably would have said Circle.
The while album
I thought she said "shove me in the shallow water" for soooo many years.
I still think that, what does she say?
It says choke me in the shallow water, not shove me. I know. I always thought it said shove me too, but look it up.
Well ok then
Discovering her in the Windows 95 installation CD, alongside Weezer's Buddy Holly
I've spent days exploring all the CD content
Listen to her version of Bob Dylan's "A Hard Rain's A Gonna Fall." Brilliant! Paul Simon ruined her sound IMO.
My favorite song to play drums to
5 yr old me had such a crush on her.
David Brent Energy.
One of the best songs that came from the 80s and that is saying a lot.
