LYRICS:
All I wanna do is to thank you
even though I don’t know who you are
You let me change lanes
while I was driving in my car. . .
Whoever you are
I wanna thank you who...
Now all I wanna do is to exit
So I go to where I can get off
On a curve, through the shoulder
There’s no parking in that trough
So I drive around all day
Coming atmospheric haze
Till I wanna get on again
Then, all I have to say is
All I wanna do is to thank you
Even though I don’t know who you are
You let me change lanes
While I was driving in my car. . .
Whoever you are
I wanna thank you who...
All I wanna do is to tune in
Radio L.A. Lujah
’Cause we’re broadcasting live
And we wanna hear all of ya
On the mic is Geggy Tah
But a whole lot more of all of ya
Let us hear ya, let us hear ya
In a big echoing holla
All I wanna do is to thank you
Even though I don’t know who you are
You let me change lanes
While I was driving in my car
Whoever you are
I wanna thank you who...

THE 90S WASN'T A DECADE IT WAS AN EMOTION

[@seanvarnerin5803]

One of the best lines I've heard in a long time

[@NetanyahuWarCriminal]

That period from 94 to 98 when the radio allowed rock to be as weird and unique as it wanted to be. I was a kid but I liked it all, even the “softer” rock was on point.

This song brought me out of a dark place tonight. My Momma got stuck taking me to a Dare to Care concert in the 90s in Springfield Mo. She loved this band. She ended up with the CD years later. 10 years ago I got to play this song for her in her last hours. The lyrics of this song explains the simple, humble innocence of my Momma. So true thank you for bringing this back to me. ❤

[@donaldseigel4101]

Janice I was at that concert.....it was incredible. I so miss Z 104.7 the Planet radio station. They would play any and everything if it was good. Springfield had alot of good things going on back then, it was good times. Very sorry for your loss, I miss my mother too, she also had a heart of gold.

This song was the very first song that played on my car radio the day I got my license. I still remember the sense of infinite hope and possibility that day carried. It was a long time ago now but this song still sparks that same joy.

[@ericthiel4053]

There were so many great "one hit wonders" in the 90s. Sucks so many of the became forgotten over time. But us 90s kids can feel good about having KZbin to listen to I suppose.....

I was in ICU in a south American hospital 3 years ago without a soul in the world to look after me and this song was playing one of the days when i woke up and one of the nurses turned on the TV. i wish i could thank these lads

[@andyroid5028]

Surprising fun fact: *_In 1996, GT released album "Sacred Cow" (it included the song "Whoever You Are"). Fast forward 5 YEARS. In 2001, after it was used in a Mercedes Benz TV ad, it became a hit._*

[@Kid_Ying]

Thanks! This song popped in my head out of absolutely nowhere yesterday. For like the first time since the commercial. I thought I knew it from a car commercial but I wasn't sure.

[@emptypocketsandiego]

And the hook of the song first appeared in the song "Go" off of their 1994 debut "Grand Opening" :)

[@two-sixteen1937]

He violated more rules of the road in this video than anyone else. No seat belt on. Playing a trumpet and a guitar while driving🤣

[@cobracafe]

Holy shit balls. I have been looking for this song for years. All I could remember was it was a catchy tune and had a Boston terrier behind the wheel. Lol

[@RustinChole]

Samesies. I knew it had something to do with “geddy drive my car 90’s song” and FINALLY.

[@vdsp011]

Their album "Sacred Cow" is a brilliant experimental rock record. I don't even know what to compare it to - Primus and Nomeansno perhaps? I've never heard anything like it. Really unique, mind bending sound. I consider it essential 90s listening. As great as this song is, it doesn't even scratch the surface of how strange, unique and original these guys were. Miss 1996 so bad.

[@vdsp011]

Bert Hutto This song a bit. Their overall sound is closer to something like Mr Bungle, but more poppy and radio friendly.

[@CGMNATURE]

I found this Cd last weekend in a flea market, It cost me 2 bucks, so happy now!

[@adamcoe]

Definitely NoMeansNo influence...hearing this record again for the first time in like 15-20 years I was hearing a little Jane's Addiction/Porno For Pyros, Gandharvas as well. Super cool record to rediscover.

[@adj789]

were thes the guys in Kenna?

[@lqr824]

Lots better stuff in this era. Primus as you say, Soul Coughing. Luscious Jackson was hip but more listenable. I listened more to acid jazz like the Corduroys Dad Man Cat, Brand New Heavies, Jamiroquai. trip hop like Massive Attack Blue Lines and Protection, fusion like Bela Fleck, dream pop like Cocteau Twins Four Calendar Cafe, pop like Luscious Jackson or The Sunday's third album. Maybe you know all this music but if not you'll like some of it I think. "

[@dubbatrubba1759]

The first time I heard this song was on the radio in my friends 60’s VW van in our work’s parking lot during lunch sometime in 1998. Me, him, and another guy got completely baked and we pumped this song up so loud, pot smoke coming out of the windows, trying to sing along to it, laughing, etc. When lunch was over, we were walking back to our job at this huge supermarket and I noticed that my ex-girlfriend had just been hired and started working that day. Because I would spend the next 4 hours stoned out of my grill, I didn’t want to run into her, so my friends tried to help me hide from her and the plan worked. The next day I ran into her, cleaned up and sober with a big smile on my face. She was really happy to see me, gave me a big hug and my buddies started cracking up. Good times man, I miss the 90’s.

[@katt5159]

So impressed to see this one on here, I used to help run the spring music festival at my college in California. It was called the Kohoutek festival and Geggy Tah was there freshman yr, along with Ozomatli and quite a few other acts that actually ended up being known elsewhere. It was a pretty famous festival and a lot of LA acts like No Doubt and Sublime had played there when they were starting out, so I always wondered if bands like Geggy Tah and Ozo would make it. It's really cool to see that they are known outside that area.

[@calowenby1654]

[@cherifletcher973]

They called our venue (Copper Rocket Pub - in Maitland, FL) We were from 1995 -2006 the original owners, we supported local music and underground touring musicians (after we sold - well shitshow) but they came in marched with instruments and did a magical thing throughout our small bar...LOVE

So Indie! A catchy pop tune with a mix of Jazz-Fusion and a marching band flourish. Now I can look back and see they were 15 years ahead of their time! I'd place them in a category with Capital Cities and The Wanted, about early 2010s. Capital Cities similarly wove commercial media narrative into their songs.
