I've been ignorant enough to basically ignore the 10,000 Maniacs and lucky enough to see Natalie Merchant. 10K Maniacs were opening for Squeeze at the Bren Events Center at UCI, I went with my now "ex-sister-in-law." We really wanted to see Squeeze and were dismissive of the "opening band" that no one had heard of... 3 months later 10,000 Maniacs exploded and were everywhere, and I LIKED them. Faux pas on our part!
Saw Natalie Merchant as a solo artist at The Greek a few years later, in support of her Tigerlily album. She just has the most interesting voice, love Natalie! I love the positive lyrics of this song, a 10,000 Maniacs HUGE hit!
