I rate it as low as possible because we've heard it way too much and because yes, it is a horrible song. The lead singer easily has one of the worst voices in recorded music, the lyrics are drivel, and the pace is boring.  |

My grandparents used to have a little cabin by a river. My best friend and I used to hang out there sometimes in the summer. One weekend we spent the entire time listening to this album and Dr. Dre's Chronic back to back. When one album would end, we'd switch the disk and play the other, again and again. If we got bored, we walked the 1.5 miles down the road to a small store to get some munchies and drinks and walk back. At night, we built a fire and just talked well into the night about girls, our lives, girls, school, girls, and sometimes even girls. We had everything all worked out, too bad we forgot it all come Monday.
My grandparents sold that land back before my grandfather died. Someday I'd like to have something like that to share with my (hypothetical at this point) kids and grandkids. We had some great times there and I really miss the place and the friendship we had. Lovely anecdote. Thanks. |

Malibu nights, tangerine dreams,
lalalala Lo-la.
Edit for more content: I first heard this song on the Woodstock 94 live album, and liked it way better than the single I heard later. It really benefits from a human drummer.

Love the guitar break — that's about 90 seconds too short.

Well, this certainly brings back memories.
Oh, and I also like the Dolly Parton cover. Really interesting!

I agree. But I haven't heard this version in a long time, and I think they do a great interpretation. Thumbs up for both Dolly and Collective Soul.

They have a greatest hits CD? I was just thinking about how this was one of the better one-hit wonders. I didn't realize they had any other "hits."
