Live - The Distance to Here

“Let’s go hang out in a church.  We’ll go find lurch”.  I couldn’t believe what I was hearing.  Would someone really write a lyric that bad?  I distinctly remember walking into a music shop (remember them?) and looking at the lyric book to see if that was right.  Reader, it was…That lyric isn’t on this album.  But it’s so bad that I can’t forget it, no matter how hard I try.  

I’m not a fan of this album, but while we consider bands like Nirvana and Pearl Jam to be the standard bearers of 90s rock, bands like Live and Matchbox 20 have sold more than their fair share of records.  This album went twice platinum in Australia, so a lot of people like them.
