One hit wonder and what a hit it was! It remains one of my favorite alternative rock songs ever written and a must play track when I play my guitar to jam with friends. Sung from the point of view of a man who is on the verge of breaking up with his girlfriend, on [...]
I was thinking about how life has evolved with technology, in a drastic pace. Then I tried to recall my younger days and what I did that kids in this generation will never experience.
