a very underrated band, IMHO. "A Girl Like You" is one of my faves and it's currently being heard in commercials for the movie Warm Bodies.

DC acknowledged his passing yesterday afternoon. As a dedication he played "Love Is All Around", which scored him a point for not playing "Wild Thing" (although he did say that's what they'll be remembered for).

Love is All Around is the sledgehammer for me.  Wistful memories of senior year in high school spring break.
