Ever since Ces from Drink at Work posted three songs on his birthday, I have not been able to get this song out of my head. Or even my playlists. It’s one of the rare songs from my past I had not heard on the radio in the last ten years. So it was a real trip back. Lucky for us, someone did a cover in 1996, allowing us to enjoy it twice today, on Then and Now. Plus, I gave Mr. Moon a list of songs and covers to chose from, and this is the one he picked. That is not to say I am not going to sting him with a cover from that blond pop princess he so fears, at a later date. [mostly because it sucks so hard and would make me laugh].

First of all, how can I not like a band called The Chubbies? Second of all, it seems appropriate that this song be covered by girls, especially punk girls. I think I am going to make this song my theme song. One of them. I also really like “When you Wish Upon a Star” by Jiminy Cricket. I’m multifaceted.
