Caught this recently on an RP rip from a coupla years ago. I see it hasn't been played in awhile here. Let's keep it that way.

Right. I would rather hear "Lack of Water" though. This song can go back to being unknown for all I care.....

Lead singer seems to have the "Creeping Creed" in his throat...

I've heard other stuff by these guys that I've liked...I've also heard hey were a great live band....but I'm sorry, this sounds just like Hootie...that's who I thought it was until I hit the playlist. Uncanny, really.

These guys were around way before Hootie. VERY fun band to see live. They still get together once and a while.

You are joking right? You do realize that Darius Rucker is the lead singer of Hootie and the Blowfish don't you?

I like these guys, they came around all the time in college. Although this isn't their best. They really rock. Shame they are no longer together

Yeah, I like it when I hear a band I like but haven't listened to in years - I'll add the Why Store to my list of RP resurrections!

Nice beat and harmonies, but I could only understand about one out of ten words because the lyrics were so horribly garbled. Get some vocal enunciation lessons then record something.Edited By selpams at 9:54 am on 6/16/2003

I do think this is a pretty hootie-esque, but its not that bad, kind of reminds me of Cat Stevens, which can forgive the Hootie influence.

Nice song, would like to listen to it again. It's got a bit of a gospel influence (apart from the title!), which I appreciate.

You can't judge The Why Store or any other band by one song. No way do they sound like Hootie and the Blowfish and they were around before Hootie anyway.Edited By wxdawg at 7:45 pm on 5/21/2002

I really like their sound-hate their stupid band name-is it possible that could've contributed to their demise??
