The name of the band Sixpence None the Richer comes from a book by C. S. Lewis called Mere Christianity.[5] A little boy asks his father if he can get a sixpence-a very small amount of English currency in use at the time-to go and get a gift for his father. The father gladly accepts the gift and he's really happy with it, but he also realizes that he's not any richer for the transaction. C.S. Lewis was comparing that to his belief that God has given him, and us, the gifts that we possess, and to serve him the way we should, we should do it humbly-realizing how we got the gifts in the first place.
The best 90s band name -- and a fantastic band musically, as well -- was Toad the Wet Sprocket. "Good Intentions", "Walk on the Ocean", and "All I Want" are all awesome songs.
Thanks for the information, never knew that until now!
I'm not sure I understand the analogy. Anyone care to explain how the comparison makes sense?
@@johnjsalGod has given us everything, so tithes and offerings to God are just returning a portion of what was His anyway.
Just like a child who buys his father a tie with the money his father gave him.
@@triggerwarning5762 No, tithes are just a way for conmen to get richer.
This song is perfectly used in the movie "She's All That" (1999).
Also, it's possibly the greatest "sappy" love song of all time. I never get tired of hearing this song and this is one of those magical songs that make you feel something or remember a memory that never existed.
It definitely takes me back to the 90s when I was a kid and everything was good.
It might not be the greatest song ever written, but I never get tired of it. It makes me smile and sometimes that's all I want from a song.
The song has a better effect, with the video of scenes from the movie. The movie was an absolute classic as far as teen / romance movies.
I fell in love with Rachel Leigh Cook from this song lol
It does remind me of a lovely girl I fell in love with 1,000 years ago when I first laid eyes on her...Joann, she was 17 and I was 19. I'm 70 now. I met her in 1973 and this song was released in the 90s, and yet it reminds me of her sweet soul and kind-hearted ways. Like the song and the singer soft, airy and sweet. Swing, swing!
The song was also included on Dawson's Creek's first soundtrack in April 1999, which is where I know it from.
My son is getting married this weekend, my new daughter in law will be walking down the aisle to this sweet song. Thanks for doing this one tonight 😊
Oh, what a lovely song for a wedding!
Aw!! I love that! Congrats to the happy couple!
I’ll add my congratulations! Wishing them a long and loving marriage 💐
That is actually a very sweet choice.
Tell her not to suffer from flatulence at the wedding. No beans!
This song was EVERYWHERE. Tv, films, radio, stores… you could not escape it and I loved it ❤
Everywhere. You know this even if you don't want to know it.
They still play it at my local grocery store. I sing along ever time.
Hmm…‘she’s all that’…Freddie Prinze?
Leigh Nash of Sixpence is the new lead singer of 10,000 Maniacs, a band long OVERDUE for a Robsquadreaction! 10,000 Maniacs with original lead single Natalie Merchant were incredible and deserve your attention, PLEASE! Your fans and subscribers will love “What’s The Matter Here?” and “These Are Days” Thank you!
Whaaaat!? I need to check them out!
Natalie Merchant was totally the best.💥💥💥
So cool to learn Leigh Nash was with 10,000 Maniacs. +1 for them and Natalie Merchant solo too.
YES. Natalie Merchant for female Fridays.
Agreed, they are WAY overdue for 10,000 Maniacs, and you just know they will love them. ✌️
I'm a grunge guy 100%. But this is one of my favorites from the 90s. It always hits me in the feels. With that said. If you like that now you should hear their song There She Goes. Another beautiful 90s song. Sung by a beautiful voice.
I think this feels like the dreamy little sister of some grunge song.
There She Goes is a cover of the excellent British band The La's.
@@davidhuggan6315 thank you for pointing that out. The original is such a great vibe.
Sure is @@jeffwestcott6902
The La's do the best version of "There She Goes". That reminds me - Watch "So I married an Axe Murderer", featuring a toned-down Mike Meyers and Nancy Travis.
Origin of the band's name from Wikipedia
Vocalist Leigh Nash described the origin of the band's name on the Late Show with David Letterman:
It comes from a book by C. S. Lewis called Mere Christianity.[5] A little boy asks his father if he can get a sixpence-a very small amount of English currency in use at the time-to go and get a gift for his father. The father gladly accepts the gift and he's really happy with it, but he also realizes that he's not any richer for the transaction. C.S. Lewis was comparing that to his belief that God has given him, and us, the gifts that we possess, and to serve him the way we should, we should do it humbly-realizing how we got the gifts in the first place.
Brilliant!!!
found this as well: "Sixpence is a pre-decimalisation UK coin worth six pence or half a shilling, a small amount of money. “ Sixpence none the richer” is an idiom that means to have engaged in an unprofitable endeavour. Literally not even sixpence richer than before.
Amen!
Very well said. I've read "Mere Christianity", it was a great read. But I don't remember much it's been so over 20 years ago.
A sixpence was 2 and a half pence in old money before the UK decimalised in the early 70's. The coin was used and a UK 5 pence looks similar.
I got a sixpence for my pocket money when I was 5 years old in 1975.
This reminds me of a perfect 90’s band (maybe for female Friday because the singer) is The Sundays. “Here’s Where The Story Ends” will break your heart, and “Summertime” is a perfect end of Summer song.
I loved the Sundays. I also think of Dubstar and Saint Etienne.
Their cover of Wild Horses is also excellent.
I was about to suggest the same! Love them, and Harriet Wheeler's voice! I would only add, from an earlier album (1989), the song "Can't Be Sure".
Yesss love The Sundays. A Goodbye is one of my faves. It used to be my ringtone back when we could start using real songs instead of computer sounds.
Rob would love the Sundays. Harriet's voice trancends space and time. I would suggest "Here's where the story ends"
From the 90s RomCom She’s All That.Yes J that was Usher.
Jay & Amber, you'll love their "There She Goes" !!! Leigh Nash on lead vocals.
The original by the la's is better
YES!
Sorry - missed your post. I love their version of "There She Goes" better than the La's version. I'd love to know a bit more about their official video for "There She Goes" - like what the story means (of the little cello player girl) and I absolutely love the artwork behind the band as well.
If they are going to react to There She Goes, it's better to listen to the original by The La's. Otherwise it would be like listening to Mr Tamborine Man but choosing the William Shatner version 🙂
One of the examples of a remake surpassing the original. Maybe not as much as Jimi Hendrix’s “Watchtower” surpasses Bob Dylan’s, or that Aerosmith’s “Come Together” surpasses the Beatles’ classic, but that’s my opinion and I’m sticking to it. (Now I’m going to dodge the rotten tomatoes being hurled at me)
My core group of friends as a teenager were all into nu metal and hard rock, stuff like that. None of us were supposed to like this song, but one day it came on in my buddies car on the radio and it turned out we all knew the words and started singing along lol. It was hilarious realizing we all had secretly liked this song lol
It's so unabashedly wholesome that it sneaks up on you. In an era when trashy music reins supreme, it's almost shocking that we used to have music like this.
I also love their cover of Don't Dream It's Over, originally done by Crowded House. I love both versions actually lol.
Agree completely! It’s a brilliant song in both versions. The first time I heard the Crowded House original version I got such a Beatles feel from it. Went on to become quite a fan of Crowded House.
This song, Len's "Steal My Sunshine" and Natalie Imbruglia's version of "Torn" take me back to the '90s in a way no other songs do. I'm glad you enjoyed this. Now I hope you watch "She's All That."
I am right with you on those 90's songs, and how they take me back. I would also add "closing time" by semisonic to that list. that was such a time in my young adult life. it was a better time in the world it would seem to me. but then again, I was younger so of course it seemed better. thanks for posting.
They've reacted to "Steal My Sunshine", not sure about "Torn," but that's one of the quintessential 90's songs!
Replace "Torn" with "Under the Bridge" and you have my flashback list
Leigh Nash has a simply magical voice and.............those eyes!
Such a beautiful, sweet song. So soft, so romantic. Amber's right. It's like the soundtrack to a perfect, magical, summer evening, and the beginning of a new love story.
The band name comes from a book by C. S. Lewis called Mere Christianity
This band was hired to be the praise band for my church's youth sleep away camp one week circa like summer of 1999 or 2000. They were so down to earth and cool. They did some really cool acapella beat box type stuff kinda like Pentatonix later would do. They do a great cover of How Soon Is Now iirc as well. I'm so glad you covered them!
I can totally see guitarist Matt Slocum wanting to perform that great Johnny Marr stuff!
Another 90s track that will be up your alley is Edwin Collins, A Girl Like You. Excellent video as well.
I love that!!
There is a Japanese version of this song. The lead singer not only nails the language, but the song itself is so beautiful in that version as well.
Love their cover of "There She Goes".
Leigh Nash (neé Bingham) has the most amazing voice and Matt Slocum on guitar is wonderful. Their album 'This Beautiful Mess' is a masterwork.
I have always loved Sixpence songs, and I don't know why. They're kind of fun and upbeat and stress relieving I guess. And I like her voice immensely.
The band is from New Braunfels, Texas and broke up in 2004. They were an American Christian alternative rock band. The girl lead singer joined the band, 10,000 Maniacs apparently. This song is the main song in the movie, She's All That.
Became a massive hit was used as main song in teen coming of age film She's All That, and was used in Dawson's Creek TV Show. Great melodic pop song with earworm hook.
I love Sixpence but my favourite song by them (by far) is their cover of the La's song "There She Goes". It's well worse checking out.
This song comes from the movie, “She’s All That” and Usher makes one of his first appearances. It’s a Cinderella story of a rich popular teenager who makes a bet with a friend that he can get Laney Boggs to get in enough shape to be invited to the prom by this popular boy. It’s a great movie and you should watch it on Friday. I love this song but there are some other great dance songs in it!
😂 I always like to point out how my prom used the same venue as the prom in the movie. We didn't have anywhere near the same budget of course.
The song was also included on Dawson's Creek's first soundtrack in April 1999, which is where i knew it from.
Sixpence also had a completely different (black & white) video for this song - a Paris version - which featured Leigh (singer), Matt (guitarist, lyricist) and Dale (drummer) biking around Paris. It was an homage to French filmmaker Francois Truffaut and his film 'Jules et Jim'. Very charming. Check it out.
Sixpence None the Richer (also known as Sixpence) is an American alternative rock band that formed in New Braunfels, Texas, and eventually settled in Nashville, Tennessee. They are best known for their songs "Kiss Me" and "Breathe Your Name" and their covers of "Don't Dream It's Over" and "There She Goes". The name of the band is inspired by a passage from the book Mere Christianity by C. S. Lewis.
The band received two Grammy Award nominations, Best Pop Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocals for "Kiss Me" and Grammy Award for Best Rock Gospel Album for Sixpence None the Richer (1997).
Vocalist Leigh Nash described the origin of the band's name on the Late Show with David Letterman:

Lewis was comparing that to his belief that God has given him, and us, the gifts that we possess, and to serve him the way we should, we should do it humbly-realizing how we got the gifts in the first place.
Guitarist/songwriter Matt Slocum met Leigh Nash in the early 1990s. They recorded a demo, which circulates as "The Original Demos", with bassist T.J. Behling at Verge Music Works recording studio in Dallas, and eventually an album, The Fatherless and the Widow, for the independent label REX Music in 1993. After adding more members, the band toured in support of The Fatherless and The Widow. The band released This Beautiful Mess in 1995.
In 1997, the group signed to Steve Taylor's label Squint Entertainment and released a self-titled album, which slowly began garnering attention from a wider audience in the mainstream industry.
In 1998, "Kiss Me" was released as a single, propelling Sixpence None the Richer into the national pop spotlight. The next year, the band followed up "Kiss Me" with a cover of The La's' "There She Goes". Sixpence appeared on the Late Show with David Letterman, The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, and numerous morning talk shows.
The band had a follow-up album ready to release, but their label Squint Entertainment started to fall apart, leaving the band in limbo for several years. Finally, Squint Entertainment folded and that album, Divine Discontent, was released in October 2002.
On February 26, 2004, Matt Slocum announced that the group had disbanded.
Love your reaction to this...Rob looked as if he was really hearing something he was trying to categorize, and Amber kind of got into it right away! Thanks for this one...Loved this from the first time I heard it👍
You guys need to check out “These Are Days” by 10,000 Maniacs. The lead singer was Natalie Merchant who also had a great solo career. And you’d love her solo song “Wonder”
Sixpence None the Richer (also known as Sixpence) is an American alternative Christian rock band that formed in New Braunfels, Texas, eventually settling in Nashville, Tennessee. They are best known for their songs "Kiss Me" and "Breathe Your Name" and their covers of "Don't Dream It's Over" and "There She Goes".
"Lovefool" by the Cardigans is another great 90's pop song like this one. One of my guilty pleasures. Jay will love the bassline!
I love this band. I first saw them on a Christian music video channel and bought their album and then a few years later I saw them in person doing a tour of Christian book stores with a short acoustic set. One of the songs they did was "Kiss Me" from their then, newest album. As soon as I heard it I thought this had hit written all over it. Sure enough, a few months later it was re-released to a wider audience and then put in a movie and it became as big a hit as I expected. The teaming of musician/songwriter Matt Slocum and singer Leigh Nash has made many wonderful songs but this one just has the best hook of them all. At the bookstore I was able to talk to Leigh and she was as sweet in person as her voice would make you believe. I got to see them a year or so later with the full band at a bigger venue and they put on a fantastic show. I'm so glad you got to this group and hope to see you react to some other Christian bands from the 90s that crossed over into the mainstream as well like Jars of Clay, Switchfoot, and Lifehouse.
And more recently NEEDTOBREATHE.
Noooooo Christian bands please!
Too late. They've already done it.
Great choices, maybe Newsboys, too.
Also classic DC Talk
I'm somewhat jealous of my older brother for having great songs like this coming out while he was in high school. I was never one to spend much time at school dances, but that might have been different if the playlists were filled with '90s music -- Matchbox 20, Savage Garden, Goo Goo Dolls, etc.
Kiss Me is featured in the teen comedy from 1990, “She’s All That” .
Clips from the movie are in this video. Yes that is Usher, he is in the movie along side. the two actors sitting on the bench with the band. Freddie Prinze, Jr. and Rachel Leigh Cook.
Thanks for reacting to Kiss Me.
A perfect song to follow up this one is from 1996 - "Lovefool" by the Cardigans. A similar vibe and voice tone in the female lead singer so it could be a Female Friday reaction!
Great reaction, thanks. Other 90s bands with female leads (with beguiling voices!) that you should do are The Sundays "Here's Where the Story Ends" and "Summertime" and 10,000 Maniacs "These Are Days" and "Because the Night (unplugged)." (10,000 also did a great version of Roxy Music's "More Than This," which you recently did.)
This song also reminded me of "Hey Jealousy" by the Gin Blossoms, another 90s tune they may enjoy! Not a female lead, but a similar vibe.
+1 for the Sundays Summertime
YESSSSSS, love The Sundays - "Here's Where The Story Ends" is exquisite! They did an awesome cover of "Wild Horses" by the Rolling Stones, too 😊
@@DavidSmith-pg1ob I think a lot of those 90s bands had a very similar vibe. I was thinking The Railway Children (late 80s, actually) sounded very similar, too - "In the Meantime" and "Every Beat of the Heart." I like the Gin Blossoms, but all their songs sound the same to me. 🤔
Yes The Sunday is a must. Talk about voices.
I think Amber would like "She's so high" by Tal Bachman.
From the movie “She’s All That” with Freddie Prince Jr. And Rachael Leigh Cook. Total classic
So I won't reiterate the name that so many have already commented about apart that it comes from a place of humbly giving what you have to God in terms of talents and gifts because God was the source of your talent or gift in the first place. I started with their debut album back in 1994 called The Fatherless and The Widow which was rather folk, acoustic, coffeehouse type alternative (key song: Trust). Their sound was way different with a more rock and artsy alternative on This Beautiful Mess released in 1995 (fave songs on that album: Love, Salvation & the Fear of Death; Within a Room Somewhere; Disconnect). Many of these would make for some good "female Friday" songs. Kiss Me was one of a couple of big hits on their '97 self-titled album along with a cover of "There She Goes". They had changed record companies from R.E.X. records on the first two to Squint Entertainment, a record label started and run by musician and songwriter Steve Taylor in 1997. Steve Taylor would also be an excellent unusual Christian artist to listen to some songs/albums.
Check out their other songs, “there she goes”, and “breathe your name”. Great reaction video. Yes we love our 90s!
This was a great sweetly romantic little song. Nice choice. Their other mainstream hit, There She Goes, is just as great.
BTW, the band took their name from a line in the CS Lewis book, Mere Christianity.
Blessings ❤

One of the most beautiful melody in 90's.Thank you guys for point out this masterpiece
This song might not have had 'a lot' but to me it does have the perfect amount of all the right things: mood, words, vocals, guitar, accordion, playfulness. The balance this song has is what makes it perfect. I love it.
well said.
I absolutely love this song…it has got to be one of the sweetest songs ever written…the lyrics are so romantic….love it❤❤️❤️
Oh my!! Sixpence none the richer! This song is on pretty much all feel good lists I make. Such a magical song!!! It can also be found in a VERY good Romeo and Juliet reboot with Leonardo DiCaprio and Claire Danes!
Song gives you warm fuzzy vibes sprinkled with pixie dust. What a gentle yet magical song ✨
How about a new artist guys, Slade. You’ve reacted to their main rivals from the ‘70’s with the brilliant Sweet, now you need to hear Slade who were the 70’s biggest selling singles artist in the uk including 6 number 1s…3 of them entering at No.1.
Apart from their Christmas hit which still makes the chart 50yrs later…Cum on Feel the Noize is one of their most popular ones
oh, LOVE this band. they only had a couple songs get a lot of air-play, but some lesser known songs I really like are Angeltread and Within a Room Somewhere. they actually have a darker tone than this song
90s LOVER of 90s MUSIC:
check out SEAL "don't cry"
BASS IS BASE "I cry"
and
DES'REE "you gotta be"
They call themselves an Alternative Contemporary Christain Group from Austin, Texas. "There She Goes" is another big song from them. From the same time period, how about Joan Osborne (not related to Ozzy) and her song "One Of Us" sometime. Thanks.😎
Hey Amber, you asked us to leave a comment about how Sixpence None the Richer got their name. The band actually got their name from a passage in C.S. Lewis's book 'Mere Christianity.' In the book, Lewis writes about a scenario where a poor family gives their last sixpence to a child as a gift, emphasizing the idea of giving generously even when you have little.
Love this song glad you covered it
Great contemporary Christian band from the 90s. "Breathe" from the multi-artist "Streams" album is a great song.
You commented on the accordion sounding beautiful in this song... One of my favorite songs with accordion is Marc Anthony's song "You Sang To Me". There are multiple versions of the song... The short "radio edit" version had much of the accordion part edited out. The longer versions have more. It comes in towards the end of the song.
A rather underrated band. Great song, beautifully arranged & love the bass line in it.
A rather overrated comment, because for some weird reason everybody is infatuated with the word “underrated” and constantly calling everything underrated, it’s annoying as hell
LOVE This Song, and haven't thought about it in So Long. So happy to hear it again! Lovely Song, and So Glad You Guys BOTH Like it Also! Great Reaction, You Guys! :)
I met this band in their early years before they recorded this song. They were very down to earth and nice
there is a simplicity and gratitude, like 2 kindred spirits meeting
Me and my buddy was driving to pick up another friend and his new girlfriend when this song came out.
I remember it coming on the radio and my buddy and his girlfriend in the back seat started singing it to each other.
Made me want to vomit.😂
I have to say I really like how you guys are open to every genre of music out there. It doesn't matter what it is you are at least willing to give it a chance what ever it might be.
This song was in the soundtrack of the movie "She's All That" Freddie Prinze Jr, Rachael Leigh Cook, Lil' Kim, Gabrielle Union, Usher. Among others.
Its always been a song I liked and I liked the band too. The name of the group, as others have said, came from the writing of CS Lewis, the sixpence representing a small value coin. It was an interesting and much loved small silver coin. The old British currency system was divided into pounds , shillings and pence (the pence, being denoted by a d) So the sixpence was 6d. In 1971 a new decimal currency system, with new coins was introduced with 100 pence in the pound and new pence were denoted by a p instead of the old d. However the sixpence was retained and continued to be used in the new system until about 1980, but its value was 2.5p (£0.025). So the sixpence was 6d or 2.5p. Even although it was worth 2.5p in the new system, everyone continued to call it a "sixpence". I still have a few of them. 🙂
This song was in the movie "She's All That" with Freddie Prince Jr. & Rachael Leigh Cook. Very sweet film!
They are from New Braunfels, TX between Austin and San Antonio. I was actually working at the Wal-Mart warehouse in New Braunfels when this song came out. Then 20 years later I saw Leigh Nash solo at a small bar in Knoxville (where I live the past 20 yrs) singing this song and she still sounded fantastic. The young woman bartender, perked up when this song started like she had no idea her bar just hired the lead singer of this song to play there. It was pretty cool to see Nash is such a small venue, then seeing a young bartender suddenly realize who she was watching.
The guitarist Matt, I used to know when I was in high school playing in bands, in fact his band Love Coma used to do shows with my band, and other bands I was with…great guy! Had a lot of great times doing shows with his band (Love Coma)…he and their lead singer told me he was putting a band together called Sixpence None The Richer….and they became successful, I was very excited and happy for him.
Leigh Nash is amazing. She also sings a short and beautiful "There She Goes"
"Here's Where The Story Ends" by THE SUNDAYS is a very similar song. Also from the Nineties.
Sixpence started as a Christian pop/rock band from Texas before moving to Nashville. This was their breakthrough to a more popular genre. It was a huge hit. Beautiful song, so well put together.
This song came out my senior year of high school. My English teacher loved it so much that she would play it at least once a day during class
love "breathe your name" another sweet song by Sixpence None The Richer
Now you need to watch the movie that goes with this song called, "She's All That". 👍
A band that epitomizes the 90s for me -- with Harriet Wheeler's stunning voice and those jangly guitars -- is The Sundays! Check out "Good Bye"... "Summertime" ... "She"... and the haunting, lovely "Monochrome".. about a historical event (see if you can guess what it is.)
I have to put this group in the (pixie fairy dream girl singers) category. Along with The Cardigans and their song Lovefool.
Guys check out "(I'll Never Be) Maria Magdalena", also known simply as "Maria Magdalena", is a song recorded by German singer Sandra and released on 1985,.... the lyrics are amazing
"If you needed somebody" by Bad Company. Great powerful vocal and the guitar solo cries.
1. Yes, that was Usher. This was from the movie "She's All That." Fun movie.
2. Check out "There She Goes." Beautiful song by them.
I love just about any song that reminds me of 1999. I hope you visit the year again soon.
That type of accordion - my family calls it a concertina, my dad played one and called it a squeezebox. Good memories!
Sixpence is an Alternative Christian Rock band that was quite popular. The name comes from a quote in C S Lewis' Mere Christianity.
Breathe Your Name was another great Sixpence song, as was There She Goes Again.
As a kid growing up in the 90s I was very lucky to do a lot of travelling to different countries for holidays, and if there was a Planet Hollywood in the area (global restaurant chain similar to Hard Rock Cafe, mostly all gone now) we would always make a point in going.
They always had a playlist of music videos and while there were quite a few songs, the playlist was always the same. There are a few songs that every time I hear it always takes me back to Planet Hollywood in some corner or the world, having an amazing time with my family. This song is one of them.
Off the top of my head I can think of a few more. ‘Lovefool’ by The Cardigans, ‘There She Goes’ by The La’s, ‘Just A Girl’ by No Doubt, ‘Kung Fu Fighting’ by Carl Douglas, and the Ghostbusters theme by Ray Parker Jr. But this song probably evokes the strongest memories.
And now you need to react to the film She's All That because of the iconic scenes during which that song played. You see its stars, Freddie Prinze, Jr. and Rachael Leigh Cook, repeatedly featured throughout this video.
Six pence is British change. I don’t know the exact value but it would be like saying I got fifty cents, but it doesn’t make me richer. A quote from CS Lewis. I actually saw this group many years ago at a Christian Rock Festival. It reminds me of my childhood chasing lightning bugs, concerts in the park, and jillions of stars against the moonlight.
1/40 of a Pound sterling.
The 90's were the best time for women as singer-songwriters and lead singers in bands!! There's Shirley Manson in Garbage, Tori Amos, Natalie Imbruglia, this band, Verucka Salt, The Breeders, Natalie Merchant, and on and on!!
You can add Margo Timmins of Cowboy Junkies and the Wilson sisters of Heart.
THERE SHE GOES is a good one from em that really highlights her airy beautiful voice
The song is from the film She’s All That with Freddie Prinze Jr. and Rachel Leigh Cook
"Sway" by Bic Runga from The American Pie soundtrack. A hauntingly beautiful song.
just barely 90s: 1999. this was "our song". still together 24 years later ..... p.s. it's always good to hear the re-recorded version with the double tracked vocals and more robust acoustic guitars (Sirius xm never plays this version)
I’m glad I was in my 20’s in the 1990’s! Love my 90’s alternative-rock-grunge era!
For the 1990s, you should check out Susanna Hoffs' "All I Want," from her self titled 1996 solo album. It's a nice combination of soft spoken with a gently rocking beat.
This is such a beautiful, simple and sweet song told from a female point of view. Check out the song "Hands Down" from the band Dashboard Confessional where a similar story is told from a male's point of view. Ah, simplicity is beautiful. Sixpence also did a cover version of the Crowded House song "Don't Dream It's Over"
A gorgeous and quirky song you'd enjoy, with equally wonderful and quirky vocals is "A Little Time" by the English band "The Beautiful South".
It has a stunning promotional video, too.
Yes, Jay that was a very young usher as the dj at the prom in 1999. The movie is She's All That. The song was in that movie & in a few episodes of Dawson's Creek with Katie Holmes which was done 1 town away in Wilmington, NC
A couple other 90s female singers that you might like - Sophie B. Hawkins or the Sundays (lead singer Harriet Wheeler)
Nora Jones.... I love her voice too. She's got a fun band called Puss N Boots. They usually do live gigs around Christmas and have guests like Bill Murray on stage with them.
Things are getting better. They manage to play one of my favourite songs. Do you know that sixpence non the richer also did a cover of crowded houses, Don't dream it's over.
Being smaller and handheld, it is called a concertina. Great song. Check out "There She Goes" next,
Correct. I was looking for a comment that mentioned it.
SixPence None The Richer is a Christian group from New Braunfels, Texas led by lead singer Leigh Nash.
Anybody who ever fished ,hiked and camped with a lover loved this song. This was definitely a get in the mood song.
