who sucked out the feeeeeeeeliiiiin'?
last week after our trivia win (as per usual), the gang headed down to the bigfoot for celebratory drinks (as per usual). dj iPod was churnin' out the hits of the 90's and with nearly every song we were all "oooooooh my gawwwwwd, i love this song!" & "this reminds me of the summer of '95" & "i had a huge crush on evan dando! remember that month when was the 'cute boy alert' in sassy?" - i'll let you deduce who said the last one. heh.
one particular song came on and incited a flurry of "who is this? WHO IS THIS? i know this band...ummmm, this song is awesome! crap. ryan, look it up on your iPhone NOW!" - after 30 seconds of surfing the intarwebz via handheld mobile device we got our answer: it was superdrag - "sucked out"!
unfortunately, even though manlio texted me the name of the song & the band AND ryan emailed me the link, i accidentally deleted the text and the url didn't work when i tried to utilize it this week...ack! as you know, these unanswered musical questions are unacceptable to me. i had to figure it out or there would be a hole in my heart that could only be filled by tracking down this very important information!
luckily, after some diligent research on ryan's part (again. what would i do without the ryan king?!?), my prayers were answered and this gem popped up in my inbox this morning. yay!
i can't believe this song is twelve years old. wow. and remember 120 minutes? matt pinfield, i miss you! someone needs to do a web show in that format. (wait - maybe *i* should do it...don't steal my idea!) in any event, i was so inspired by discovering this little nugget of ear-joy that i bought the whole album and will be revisting the rock of my adolescence this afternoon. huzzah!
good story, huh? ;)
