Smells Like Alternative

So last weekend I happened to watch the 1999 flick American Pie, because there was nothing else on. The movie isn’t that great as I once thought it was, but it was fun watching it and reminiscing on high school days.

However, one thing that I really enjoyed about the movie was the use of “You Wanted More” by Tonic. I loved that song then and it’s still a guilty pleasure of mine.

The track got lots of airplay and it even hit #3 on the Billboard Mainstream Tracks. It was also featured on Tonic’s second album Sugar, which was released in November of 1999.

Needless to say the song has now been in head, especially the line “I don’t know when I got bitter, but love is surely better when it’s gone”.

Ah, good stuff.

Anyways, here’s the video for “You Wanted More”.
