This band is typically classified as alt rock, but I don't hear a lot of the things in their music that would typically make me classify a band as alternative. This band's music is usually pretty melodic and focuses on the lyrical side of things, often having an optimistic story in those lyrics. The band blends a lot of styles into their music, too, and, admittedly, some of that influence comes from an alternative sound.
This song was originally recorded for the band's debut, self-titled album. It didn't become a big it until its rerecording and release on the band's second album. I don't know that I've ever heard the original recording, but I'd like to just to hear what, if any, changes were made. Upon its second release, the song fell just short of the Top Ten, hitting the #11 spot on the Hot 100.
