Bush may not have been one of the best bands from the 90’s, but they did have some decent songs, which includes “Swallowed”.
“Swallowed” was the first single from the band’s 1996 sophomore release Razorblade Suitcase. It then spent 7 consecutive weeks on top of Billboard’s Modern Rock Tracks, which is pretty amazing to me cause there […]
