    Yeah, this video has almost 3 million views. It must have been featured in a couple of Adam Sandler movies.

    Here are two early 90's bands that had hits that have not been mentioned:

    1) Raw Youth - "Tame Yourself." Great pop-rock band from NYC, fronted by the stunning Myoshin Thurman (Uma's cousin). From "Hot Diggity."



    2) The Katydids - "Lights Out." Tapped by the UK pop rags to make a big splash in the 90's, but didn't. Good jangle-rock, though.

    Being that this song is the opening music to "The Sopranos" I don't think it will ever be forgotten. That said, I don't very many people know who Alabama 3 is or, for that matter, ever did.

    Hardly an obscure band. They've been making great albums for 22 years now, including the one they just released last year, All Together Now. They also put on a great live show if you've never had the good fortune to seem the live

    That entire Lp is just fantastic!! Pulled it out for the first time in years the other day and I'd forgotten how great of an LP it was.

    Apologies in advance, but has US3 been mentioned? Cantaloop is such a great song

    Tracy Bonham- "Mother Mother".

    I recall this getting a lot of airplay around 96-97 time frame.

    Jesus Jones were huge for like 9 months in America. I thought they were gonna last. I agree with the other poster that Nirvana and grunge kinda wiped them out of the public eye. I really liked their follow up Perverse but no one else in the USA seemed to notice

    I think New Radicals have a cult following. They only released one album IIRC

  23. "Martin Scorsese" was a memorable one too. It's one of the best f**kin' songs I've ever heard, I f**kin' love it. :D

    Treehouse-Daddy Inside 1997,- Nobody's Monkey, nice song even though it sounds like everything else at that time, a little Black Lab-ish
    I remember hearing this once or twice, they then vanished, I have the single but never got around to grabbing the album, I don't even think there is a dicogs listing for them
