Matthew Sweet's "Evangeline", another nice rarity.

Sounded quite nice, though I like "I've Been Waiting" better.

Paul Simon's "Obvious Child" always reminds me of college: one of the guys in the Freak gang once performed this at a campus talent show by snapping his fingers together in broad, almost violent motions that resonated astonishingly loudly.

What's this "Ordinary Average Guys" nonsense?  Sounds like Joe Walsh and Todd Rundgren doing bad drugs together.

it is indeed Mr Walsh -- a sizeable AOR comeback for him in '91.  Rhyming "garage" with "Dodge" is as ordinary/average as it gets.

BOS2 DiVinyls, still one of the best pop singles of that year, IMHO.
