Gin Blossoms -- a proxy of Gaz, but I'm outta here. '89 and '96 back-to-back -- sheesh!
You spin me right 'round, baby, right 'round

Yep, looks that way.

VHM to Radiohead when they were still just another Britpop band. High 'n Dry.
Let's get right to it.

Not a bustout, but close: Son Volt, Drown (released in 95, but got airplay in 96). BOS.

Yer cousin Ed...drowned!

Why am I associating that one with '95?

Maybe 'cause it was released in '95? Per AMG, it hit #18 on the Modern Rock chart in 95, then went to 78 on the Hot 100 in 96 (which was probably when KFOG played it ;) ).

Good thing Mike bailed out before Clapton's "Change The World" - he'd be apoplectic.

ETA: I see he didn't necessarily bail yet.

I'm posting but not listening.  And -- surprise -- I actually LIKE "Change the World", I'd've given it a VHM at very least.

Surprise!?  How 'bout total shock.  There's a great expression in Taiwanese that connotes astonishment at someone acting totally out of character better than anything in English:  "Bo-day-qua!"

Such as when my 6-yr-old said he didn't want any ice cream last Saturday, or when RGMike says he actually would give a VHM to late-period Clapton.

This sounds like Lenny K., am I right?

Big 'meh' regardless.
