The Sundays made trippy dream-pop music and made it for a masses that wasn't ready for them.
This song, which was never released as a single per se but was their first real video released to MTV in the United States, was my introduction to them. Their whole Reading, Writing, and Arithmetic album, released in early 1990, was an eye-opener and changed my musical fandom forever.
They broke up in 1998, but starting in 2014, there started to be some rumblings that there would be a return. It has not yet materialized, but I am hopeful.
They did perform live an awful lot, and this show from 1997 - where they beautifully performed the song - is one of my favorites. Harriet Wheeler's voice is full of a lot of passion that is far more apparent in this live setting.
