Song and band should be a no-go for RP!

Close to be ridiculous!

Saw Belly back in the day a couple times. Graceland in Vancouver once, other time I don't recall, maybe at the Commodore. Was one of my favorites but dreadful live shows unfortunately.  Still love them though :)

Wow.  Lot of bellyaching here about a good song.  Ratings don't lie, amigos.

The worst kind of pop song; the track should join Belly in the trash bin of forgettable bands.

"Feed the Tree" is a song by Belly, released as the band's first single from their debut album, Star, in 1993. It is also the band's biggest hit, reaching #1 on the Modern Rock Tracks chart.
From Wikipedia

Got a good deal of airplay around here in the DC area both on WHFS and DC101
Qualifies as great pop song in my book

I saw Belly open for Radiohead (last song played) in 1992 or 93 at the Trocadero Ballroom in Philadelphia.  Tanya & Thom did an acoustic rendition of "Thinking about You" which was truly beautiful and raw.  Ahhh, the college rock scene in the Northeast back then was surely good to be around.  Good times...
