So nice to see this in my feed. Sometimes the algorithm takes pity on me and gives me something I love. With all the great albums this is still one of my favorite tunes :)
Me, a genius: This song is a metaphor about getting into a really bad fight with your partner. Rhett, a fool: This song is about the time my friend's cat got out.
First Old 97s song I ever heard was Oppenheimer on a local community station right after Fight Songs came out. I saw this about a week later. Been a die hard fan ever since. That said..... Is it me, or is Rhett giving off massive Gareth Keenan vibes? :D

In a catalog of Replacements-level wordplay, this might be one of the most “original” songs they made ❤

that made it cute but I wondered how thin that girl must be to fit to get through the window crack
I reckon Rhett's on to something there.
Damn that is good. Still kicking ass.
Geez they look like they're about 12. Just saw them last year, and they've still got it. Great show!
Wow! Blast from the past. I saw them perform at the Del Mar Race Track in San Diego back in 1998 or 1999....for free. lol.
Love these guys.
They never disappoint...new album , excellent
They all look so young - great performance.
Love the throwback clips so much!
I remember falling in love with him when I saw him solo and he told us this was about losing a friend's cat. Sigh (the cat did return)
Who? Murry? 😂
Cool. I'm from the year 2022 and these guys are in a Marvel Christmas special.
@@MaximumCarne What special? I don't remember this song appearing in any Marvel special.
Not enough Murray close-ups. Never enough Murray close-ups.
He's a great bass player! Have you listened to his solo album?
I love his song “Color of a Lonely Heart”...one of my all time favorite songs.
I don't know who Dr. Walsh is but I like him. Thanks for posting.
Seriously, they were all wearing polo shirts? This is when I got into them?
Heh, at least he still had some of the twang in his voice..
yeah none of those are polos
Remember, button downs were the only type of shirt being made in the 1990's.

This has a great sound - somewhat like the Gin Blossoms.
I attended this show.
The ticket price was excellent.
It's the tonight show, tickets are free
This is majik to me! :)
This song is about a missing cat, for any whippersnappers wondering.
I love Rhett's "Damon Albarn" hair.
So 90's :')
No, so 97's
I like shaggy hair Rhett better but remember seeing this on TV....great!
Cool
Of course its about a cat but also applies if you have a stray partner
Skater cuts!
Poor Murry didn't get much camera time!
RM can write a goddamn song
This is the year that Half Life came out, and the south was on track to become progressive, and then...
To me the first part of the song sounds a lot like REM Driver Eight
They do an amazing cover of that.
