Probably one of the most misunderstood bands of all time. All they were doing was having more fun than all the critics that tried to tear them down. Really talented rhythm section with a guitar that leads in often perfectly. With a front man that gives the impression he’s on all the drugs you want to be on. Love me some Spin Doctors
I was always mad only 2 songs got any real air time... the rest of it... where's the rest of it... any of it... pick one lol The whole thing simply rocked.
People are idiots, they jump on hate wagons and most have never even heard the band. People bag on Cold Play and while not my favourite band the fact of the matter is they fill stadiums around the world...AND.... their first two albums were actually great albums. Foo Fight are put on an alter and Nickelback are a punchline. Other than the fact Dave is likeable as far as music goes, they're not that far apart.
My daughter (5) and I listen to this all the time. We literally have a a call and response in our regular day to day. One of us will yell "What time is it?" and the other will yell "4:30!" and then we dance.
anytime my wife or kids ask me what time is it. ..I say 4:30.... no matter what time it really is... I've been doing this for 25 years... they still look at me strange.. everytime. it's wonderful!
Hey all who’m have replied and liked. Just wanted to say, 3 years after this post, the call and response still going strong!! Glad y’all enjoy it as much as we do.
1 Album Wonders. I say that because nothing beyond pocket full of kryptonite got any attention at all... and that album... in its entirety... absolutely rocked. Sad things didn't work out but at least we have what we have.
I love the way the snare is cranked up and is high pitch compared to a lot of rock. I crank my snare up a little extra for this funky rock sound. Gives the snare a nice pop!🤘
I wore this album/cassette out when I was 8 or 9, not having a clue what any of the songs implied or meant. I still love it to this day especially this song & album. Anytime I here a Spin Doctors song (on satellite radio) I have a genuine 5 minutes of happiness.
I hadn’t listened to this album I’m SOOOO long... I forgot how great it is. This song, Refrigerator Car, Shinbone Alley/Hard to Exist, and my favorite: Forty or Fifty. Just sooo good!!!
Such a clean sound What a tight band Totally filling the air with only 3 instruments and 1 singer The original formula for rock & roll Not relying on production values Studio & 'live' exactly the same Like their songs or not Recognize the purity Honest music No tricks
My first time to see the ocean was in Daytona Fla. in '93. If you were in a club down there and any of their songs came on, you would hear a cheer from the crowd and you would instantly see everybody groovin' to it. A wonderful sight indeed! I saw them here in KC, in early mid 2000's, and they did not disappoint in the slightest! This is as organic as good time rock and roll band can be.
Saw them with Soul Asylum and Screaming Trees in '93 at the UC Berkeley Greek Theater. One of the best shows I've ever seen and I've seen a LOT of Bands live. Paid $20 for my ticket...
So my nephew just asked "What time is it?"and you know what my immediate response was. Then I looked at my clock and it was, indeed, 4:30! Great timing!
I've taught this to my 2 year old. Whenever I shout what time is it she starts laughing and we sing it. Really underrated song, it's got a great groove but not many people know it.
The members of The Spin Doctors look like they are reenacting the hippie generation except with an alternative pop sound to go with their free spirited outfits and hair! ~Dutch
My friend started to sing this in art class and we were drawing buildings so I made a building that said click at the top with a circle next to it that had 4:30 inside of it and then that building had a giant sign that just said "It's not late, it's earlay it's not late, nah, it's just earlay what time is it? four thirtay" and those buildings are amazing
I saw them in S.F. at the record store at Powell/Mission back in 1999 or so; signing stuff, giving away little green frisbees - still sitting in my living room.
Yesterday I asked my wife what time it was, and she said 4:30. I finished the lyric, and she had no idea what I was talking about. We've been married 8 years
True story, I saw these guys about 2 years ago at a taco festival. But guess what? All the original members, and they sound exactly the same. People lost it when they played little miss can't be wrong.
A woman asked me today, “What time is it?” It was actually 4:31, but I lied to her, and told her it was 4:30. I considered the potential harm it could do her, to think that it was a minute earlier than it actually was, but I made a decision in that moment that the benefit outweighed the risk. I just hope she’s okay.
Every time someone asks me what time it is, I say, "4:30! It's not late, nah, nah, it's early!" They always look at me like I'm insane. But TODAY!!! Today was the glorious day that it was ACTUALLY 4:30 when someone asked me. It was bound to happen after all these years! lol

Exactly. They're like Dave Matthews.
Don't try to make sense of it. Just bob your head and jam to that shit 🤷♂️
Some really great blues sounds on this album too. Love the song Shinbone Alley
Fun little Dance Break!🎉💃

Me and my dad do this 😂
How sweet !!! 😊
So funny, my dad, my daughter and I did this as well back when this song came out!!
anytime my wife or kids ask me what time is it. ..I say 4:30.... no matter what time it really is... I've been doing this for 25 years... they still look at me strange.. everytime. it's wonderful!

2024 needs bands like this to save the world musically speaking, I miss those amazing 90s
True that!
Nowadays, whenever somebody asks me for the time and I reply "430, it's not late, it's early, early" they have no idea what I'm talking about.
My kids totally would. They would sing along... I try to rain them in the classics. ;)
They failed the age test lol
Cause you forgot the “naw, naw,” before the it’s justa early early ...
EVERY. SINGLE. TIME!!!
Can totally relate to this 😂
Impossible to be sad while listening to the docs.
40 or 50 horses?

1 Album Wonders.

Sad things didn't work out but at least we have what we have.
Mark White is one kickass bassist.
Indeed he was his playing here is in a league with Les Claypool!
Mark White is black. lol
Comess' drumming on this track is absolute Beast Mode!
on every track.
Never forget how important American positivity is. From north east England.
Love these guys. Just groovin' and having fun!
Spin Doctors fan since the 90s. This band is just fun!
One of my favorite guitar solos.
One of my all time favorite snare drums. Comess is such a clean drummer. These guys ARE great.
Same
The drum fills on this tune are sick 😷
I love the way the snare is cranked up and is high pitch compared to a lot of rock. I crank my snare up a little extra for this funky rock sound. Gives the snare a nice pop!🤘

@@mattgreen5720 Australian wood 👍
The B-side of the “Little Miss Can’t Be Wrong” single. Loved it from the first play.
That drummer works that hi-hat so nice. He grooves the song so well.
That's it. I'm watching one Spin Doctors video a day to maintain my positivity.
Such a random song. Love it.
These guys should have done the theme tune to a James Bond movie.
I wore this album/cassette out when I was 8 or 9, not having a clue what any of the songs implied or meant. I still love it to this day especially this song & album. Anytime I here a Spin Doctors song (on satellite radio) I have a genuine 5 minutes of happiness.
Same just I was 6 or 7. I still have my pocketful of kryptinite cassette.
So what does this song "imply"? Pray tell....
I hadn’t listened to this album I’m SOOOO long... I forgot how great it is. This song, Refrigerator Car, Shinbone Alley/Hard to Exist, and my favorite: Forty or Fifty. Just sooo good!!!
... and Jimmy Olsen's Blues! 8-D
Such a clean sound
What a tight band
Totally filling the air
with only 3 instruments
and 1 singer
The original formula for rock & roll
Not relying on production values
Studio & 'live' exactly the same
Like their songs or not
Recognize the purity
Honest music
No tricks
@John Baker...You're absolutely right!
Bang on kidda
john baker Sometimes the best sounds aren’t “clean”. Look at Nirvana.

I wuz there with you, dude! I mean... you know, also.
Wait, wait wait... No, I was at the the REAL Greek Theatre... in LA. Nevermind.
This band was so tight, the bass lines, the guitar riffs and drumming!
THIS WAS THE SONG. Every friend to this day that asks for the time. I respond
4:30!
🤣
Sep. 2022 and it’s still a BOP 🤘
this is the grungiest Spin Doctor's song!
2:27 begins one of the most epic guitar solos in popular music history!!
that funky bass is a great accompanyment, all that is needed, with drumming!
I don't think I ever properly appreciated that solo, til today.
jamin to this beat at 🕟 4:30 🎶
here in California 2020.
❤ love that bass.
Good memories from the 90's eh??
if you are listening to this song...besides possibly being 4:30...its time to SPIN.... get with the program....and hang on.... 🤩
One of the best songs of this band. Great!
My Father showed me this right before Christmas. Best Gift Ever. Think about it.
Played every day at 4:30 when I get off for work
Ahah cher drôle
The whole album is pretty good to get moving
Do you still?
Ha ha me too!
That guitar riff is so fuckin' cool!
Chris Barron had some Sick Spin moves!!!!🕺
So my nephew just asked "What time is it?"and you know what my immediate response was. Then I looked at my clock and it was, indeed, 4:30! Great timing!
Sick Solo @ 2:30 Rock on 🤘
UNDERRATED BAND
I've taught this to my 2 year old. Whenever I shout what time is it she starts laughing and we sing it. Really underrated song, it's got a great groove but not many people know it.
I answer every inquiry about the time with a "4:30!" and a little head dance.
Yep, I'm a nerd.
Same!
every time i hav been askt i allways think 4 30 and hear this bass line in my head !! luv it ! arrrrrrrrr
Super energetic and UP! for a change. Spin Doctors are refreshingly different.
The members of The Spin Doctors look like they are reenacting the hippie generation except with an alternative pop sound to go with their free spirited outfits and hair!

Thanks, Captain Obvious.
Guitar Player My pleasure, Colonel Guitar Player!

YouCantHoldOnTooLong :)
It just started with two princes, now i loved their songs.
They were 10 minutes late for the greatest stoner anthem of all time.
They puffed for ten minutes and already lost track of time. That's a stoner classic! Come on, look at the guy. He's wasted AF : )
It's not late... nah... NAH!
still kinda works...you smoke at 4:20 but the idea is to be RIPPED by 4:30
are you sure? real stoners are never on time for anything. 4.30 sounds about right...
Brilliant@Guess Whocifer
My friend started to sing this in art class and we were drawing buildings so I made a building that said click at the top with a circle next to it that had 4:30 inside of it and then that building had a giant sign that just said "It's not late, it's earlay it's not late, nah, it's just earlay what time is it? four thirtay" and those buildings are amazing
A cracking choone from an extremely under rated band 😎😎👍
Hanson sings this like rock stars.
This is definitely one of my guilty pleasure songs. :)
This song will always represent my south Florida childhood. I loved it as a kid.
yep, like many other people whenever I hear "what time is it" all I can think is "4:30... it's not late... nah, nah, it's early... early"
I love this track. It's so silly but so fun
2023 appreciating this classic, and this band.
Man, that guitar lick compliments my Cafe Bustello this morning, and It's not late....
It's currently 4:30 PM where I'm at.... Perfect timing
That is a perfect guitar solo if I've ever heard one
god this song rules
....time to listen to some good music
Sweet drum beat, gets me going.
I didn’t know what time it was,
When I met you,
Oh what a lovely time it was,
So sublime it was, too
There best song
Aww man. Yeah, great memories.
And yes, it is always ADVENTURE TIME. (Love that show)
IT'S HAPPY HOUR!!! TIME TO HAVE A DRINK!!!!!!!!!!!
I NEVER EVER WORE A WATCH IN THE 90S AND I NEVER WANTED TO.... THANK GOD FOR CELL PHONES!!!!!
I promise you this, my friends: if I find this record I will buy it again.
I was listening to this song when I was 17
WHAT A FREAKIN' GREAT GROOVE... (...and lyrics)
President... he sweat through his talcum...
Newspaper man, he watch like a falcon!!
sounds like "jerry was a racecar driver" by primus
Not really, but okay.
If it's 4:30 at the start of the song, there is absolutely NO WAY the time is still 4:30 four minutes later.
Confuzledish but 4:30 is after 4:20 - which means it could be considered a bit late ;)
Thanks Arin
+Confuzledish depends on if it was really 4:20!!! hahahaha
The only acceptable answer in this family when asked , 'what time is it?', is 4:30, otherwise you get short shrift! ;o)
Pardon 20 yr=d mean.
A-4;/
Love this song
Whoa blast from the past. Me and my bro always saying '430' when someone asked what time it was 😂
Funky Groovy kickin it in the high side of some rhythm and blues rockin tunage!!
What time is it? Game grumps time!
Booger Booger!
I saw them in S.F. at the record store at Powell/Mission back in 1999 or so; signing stuff, giving away little green frisbees - still sitting in my living room.
This was massive in Island.
Wow, this explains so much about last night's concert.
Sounds really good 👌🏾😊👄
If you travel, out of this country, they still, make masterpieces
With hands, on
The song Almost has a Primus sound❤❤❤ good bass I would like to hear Les Claypool play this
Best sound Check song eva
Positivity!
Yesterday I asked my wife what time it was, and she said 4:30. I finished the lyric, and she had no idea what I was talking about. We've been married 8 years
Played that song for my partner at 2:30am. she nearly clocked me with my own phone. she didn't know the song either. lol
oh yeah back here again May 2020
Underated band made fab music
Their clock was 10 minutes fast
Saw these guys live
Same. In Germany Cologne. Around 1998 or something like that. It was a blast!
Lucky mfkrs.
What Time is it Super geil Immer wieder gern .
This video should have been 3 seconds shorter...
So it's four thirty for 7 more seconds, it's not late, it early, ain't you learnt nothin?
4:30 Minutes almost thats ... kinda awesome.
I'm 42, and this song still poos on my head every time someone asks me what time it is🤣🤣🤣🤣
"Hey Daddy'oh!"
i put on my kid's winter hat to smoke a cigarette. naturally i had to put this on.
Good drumer
Well talented
True story, I saw these guys about 2 years ago at a taco festival. But guess what? All the original members, and they sound exactly the same. People lost it when they played little miss can't be wrong.
Good old spun days! In San diego!CALI!LOL

Hhahahaa
Decisions had to be made. You made the executive decision to spin their doctor (the only logical decision, in my opinion). Regret nothing.
Good funky style like the rhcp
Happy Layne Staley OP!
