People who hear this disc often want a copy.  I've bought six or eight used, for 1.99 to 3.00 or so, to give away to friends who missed these guys the first time around.  I have five or so releases, both full-length and singles, but this is the album to get.  For less than the price of a tall latte, it is a no-brainer.

Hmm, I already gave it a 2. I wonder if I were generous at that moment.

I thought this was Placebo or U2 (maybe even The Smiths, as a co-worker says).

OK, I'll admit having to look up wanky at urbandictionary.com. And, yeah, a little.

Is it me or does anyone else think that this sounds similar to old U2?
absolutely. i always figured that's why these guys didn't make it bigger -- the need had already been met.

Excellent song! Saw these guys in the mid-90s. Too bad they didn't stay together.They were superb.

I went looking for this on iTunes and didn't find it. Love this song for it's well orchestrated music and the singer. Yeah, he might be a little "wanky" but this was one of my favorite songs at the time this came out (not sure all you can remember back that far).

i have to say, i'm sort of impressed by this song, though, yes, the singer is wanky.

Some nice elements, but ultimately I get turned off by the singing voice...

Same here, but I don't think I've ever heard it out of my own collection. Keep it in the rotation!
