This song was really ahead of it's time. A perfect 90s alternative song in 1989. I can't believe this guy wasn't more popular in the 90s.
@OVI-Wan-Kenobi-87 жыл бұрын
maninthegreyhat How would this be considered a 90s alternative song? It's basically a pop song that wasn't really that popular at the time. That alone does not make it an alternative song.
@MegCazalet7 жыл бұрын
OVI-Wan Kenobi I think it's use of the Chamberlin and Penn's lyrics make it a rightful indie-sounding precursor to 90's progressive, if not full blown alternative, like Smashing Pumpkins. I think it's odd that you seem to blame it for attempting pop mainstream play, though, like there's something inherently wrong with that.
@OVI-Wan-Kenobi-87 жыл бұрын
Meg DiPaolo You actually have me all wrong, I like pop songs and hate 90s alternative. I just don't want this late 80s gem of a song to be associated with the pretentious BS that was 90s alternative music. I don't have a problem with this being classified as an 80's indie song which it likely is, but it's way too good of a song to be classified as 90s alternative which is essentially fecal matter.

@melissasaint32832 жыл бұрын
It definitely did not match the pop music of 1989 at all, this was post-grunge alt rock several years before that happened, and it still sounds fresh today. I've never understood why Michael Penn hasn't received even more attention than he has, he is a great songwriter with a wonderful voice. The cover of the Beatles' Two of Us that he and his wife did is another gem.

But now I've tracked the bugger down! HAZAAH!! Don'tcha hate it when you can't quite remember a song or the artist, and it wont leave you alone.

LOVE this song so!!!! Saw him at St. Andrews Hall in Detroit in 1990 with my then-fiancee and had the privilege of hearing this amazing song in person from the left-side balcony and that concert remains one of my all-time favs for its intimate setting, clean dynamic and powerful emotional pleadings.

Technically, this was my first concert. He opened up for Tears for Fears in Columbia, Maryland back in 1989, and what a great show all around!!!

It's hard to believe Michael is the brother of Sean Penn. I never knew that Sean Penn had a brother that was a singer. I will never get tired of this song this will always be one of my favorite songs!

His brother Chris was a phenomenal but much underrated actor who unfortunately passed away too soon.

I've been a fan of this song for 30 or so years, and I had an epiphany I'm startled to realize after all these years- this has a George Harrison/Beatles sound that I never fully appreciated before. Just goes to show, there's always surprises out there.

In 1989 I was in a band doing lots of covers but trying to get our own stuff across. One day this song came on the radio and it was like getting hit by a bolt of lightning.... The construction, the melody, the tempo, the lyrics..... For the one and only time in my life, I immediately went and bought it. Love it as much today as then.

I wore out a VHS of the (year 2000) movie "Loser" rewinding the start of the closing credits because of this song. Great memories and I feel that movie is better than it's remembered too.

Finally! Been looking this song for years! I tried singing it to Shazam, but the app told me get your sh*t together! 😝 No joke, this song popped in my head years ago! Last time I listened to this song was when I was 11 yrs old, in 1990. My last year in Lima, Peru !!! I was lurking Spotify for 1980s alternative and bingo! 😇

I was a cashier/bagger at the Harris-Teeter supermarket near UNCC in Charlotte, NC & in junior high school when this song was released. It still got lots of airplay during the late Winter/Early Spring of '90 which is when I remember hearing it the most. One of the fond memories from the soundtrack of my life at the time. 👍🏽💯☺️

This song is like a gold nugget that slipped through the grates on the sluce. I cannot remember the first time I heard it, it's almost like it came from nowhere and yet it's like it always existed... It is a timeless track that has incredible composition and is lyrically perfect...if only it could play for all of time...
