    Marcy Playground, Harvey Danger, Blind Melon, The Toadies, etc. So many bands from the 90’s with only one hit that in actuality churned out tons of great songs and albums. What a decade for music.

    This album has got to be one of the most underrated of all time Most people only know Sex & Candy and there was soooo much more where that came from. Truth is, that wasn't nearly the best song on the album...and it's a good song for sure. Poppies, Cloak of Elvenkind, Sherry Fraser, THIS song and wow...not a bad track on the album at all.

    They were famous. They had the most played radio single in the country in 1997. By the time their follow up CD came out, trends had changed. That said, Shapeshifter is a solid album.

    • @wildmercuryfilms
      @wildmercuryfilms Рік тому +1

      Not true: Shapeshifter was released in ‘99, the same year as Enema Of The State by Blink & There Is Nothing Left To Lose by Foo Fighters & Californication by RHCP. 1999 still had Guitar Rock in Full Bloom. Why didn’t Shapshifter make it? Probably because when you GRAB THE ATTENTION OF THE WORLD, like “Sex and Candy” had done, YOU NEED TO FOLLOW IT UP WITH A GROUP OF GREAT SONGS. Beck did that after “Loser” with his next album ODELAY, and Radiohead did it after “Creep” with their NEXT ALBUM “The Bends.” Both “Loser” and “Creep” could have been ONE-HIT WONDERS. In fact, I remember Rolling Stone wrote reviews of “The Bends” saying they were IN SHOCK that the band that made “Creep” could make an EXCELLENT ALBUM. Marcy’s Playground could have done it, but they would have had to PACK THE FOLLOW-UP with GREAT SONGS. They didn’t do it.

      The less popular songs of bands are usually better. I don't know if it's because of how overplayed the most popular ones are or they're just worse. I honestly can't stand Smells Like Teen Spirit anymore because of how overplayed it is, but I love other songs by Nirvana that have probably never even been played on the radio before.

    I think he just means music with a real creative vision, like anything marcy playground made, designed to take you to their headspace and feel the sound. People often aren't aware of that dynamic in alternative rock, and just go for whatever they hear on the radio with obvious cliche arrangements which require little more from the listener than to just nod their head and guess the song progression. stuff that record companies jam down some empty shells throat and turn them into an icon.

    Is it wrong that I found this music video funny?
    Maybe it's because they brought the "wolf" to the vet. Like they noticed he was having stomach problems before they noticed the kid was gone and/or are more concerned for the well-being of the beloved family pet than for the dumb kid who kept screaming "Wolf!" at them.
    Either that or the implication that they just left him in there.
    "Are you okay?"
    "Yes, get m-"
    (turns off the mic) "Okay, he says he's fine. And the dog seems to be doing okay too, so... Can I book a return appointment for Monday?"

    This song is much better than “Sex and Candy.” I remember first hearing this on the radio in the car with my friend when I was 17, and literally right after I said “I hate Marcy playground and that Sex and Candy song,” this played.

    I love the guitar sound. I have to figure out how to get it and learn this song.

    this album was my daily dose of teenage “rebellion act” back in 1998 every day before school, sophomore year in HS had nothing on me!! Fuck!! it feels good to be an adult!
