MERCURY REV - CAR WASH HAIR

[lionstanding]

1990 to 1993...then ALMOST everything went to shit...Spiritualized would be one exception....early Verve.....

[1lipsfan]

Freaking amazing!

[yummydarjeeling]

No. 2 has got me confused. Hope i'll always be numbers one and 3.

[alabaster9]

Dean Wareham of Galaxie-500/Luna on lead guitar!

[Stokemeaclipperbro]

This track really is good, the melody is totally banging.... just makes you feel.. good, especially if you partake in some Marijuana fun, like everyone should.

[thudd23]

whoever thought that there is nothing new under the sun well here is the new sun well in 1994 but still .......yeah

[josephmarshall]

i wish i could like it more than once

[headphoneyful]

Brilliant

[omolawton]

I always thought that Car Wash Hair was a euphemism for a vagina...

[bronsonlee777]

I saw this video a couple of times on Lado B from MTV Brazil in mid/late 90´s. Beautiful song.

[tedsuplex]

anything with llamas in is OK with me

[kaighnyne]

Struts and Frets by Jon Skovron. Random book my mother picked up for me, but I love it, finished it after two days lol. There's a song list in the back of the book, and I'm trying to listen to them all.

[xKAOTICxx]

Same :D

[DarkChy93]

me too

[SettingSun77]

They played this a few times on Alternative Nation on MTV UK. Great video, great show.

[fakelegache]

so true...mtv died when they cancelled that show. just look at mtv2...as corperate as its possible to be.

[ShlomirBareket]

Never knew a video for this existed. YouTube is great for letting the world see shit that only rich stoners could see on MTV.

[48kbrain]

wow its been 17 years since i saw this

[goodmood3]

damn ,i miss the 90s.

The best hiphop and also the best rock

[projectcee]

@goodmood3 that is SUCH a true thing to say....the best indie and hiphop no doubt :))

[dannyapeshit]

@goodmood3 not so sure about that. The good Rock bands like this band, Pavement, Fugazi and BJM remained under the radar. Remember the 90's was mainstreamed by all that alternative garbage eg. Limp Bizkit, Korn, Creed and Blink 182. It was cool to be hardcore, goth or skate punk. (hated it)

And hip hop in the 90's being a better argument, though is still questionable. The 80's was when Hip Hop actually had messages and a lot of fun with legends like EPMD, Public Enemy, NWA and Run DMC.

[hootyhaha]

@dannyapeshit Just saw your comment after I posted mine. I agree 100 percentile. Though I still had a lot of fun in the 90s at some good shows. Dinosaur Jr., Jellyfish, The Violent Femmes, Faith No More.. though one could also argue those guys formed in the 80s or late 80s as well. Jellyfish started out as Beatnik Beach, most of them did I think. Then they formed Jellyfish in 1991 I think. Long time ago.

[z1rakz1gal]

@dannyapeshit remind me somebody, what does indi/alternative/college rock of the 90's have in common with hiphop- other than the date? agree with you on the fugazi/pavement point o' course. the best music is never discovered by the populace, and even by the discerning..often after the fact!

[hootyhaha]

@goodmood3 I'd have to say the 80s were the best :) But the 90s were a close run. After 1996 though too many bands started sounding too much like each other, grunge took over way too much.. I've never been so sick of flannel and burnt colors and still sick of that today. I was an alterna-teen/grunge teen.. so I got sick of it at about 25 years old.. oh yeah I was a teenager till I was 25 too :)  Look up The Sugar HIll Gang Rappers Delight, any Sir Mix-Alot track, and the Beastie Boys are 80s.

[z1rakz1gal]

@hootyhaha stopped at 25? hang your head, im 42 and still hittin the floor! (jokes, but i am 42). and i dont doubt you arent far off- revive yourself friend!

[stellarconverter]

grasshopper from mercury rev had a band called Hopewell that was really good. so far i don't see any on youtube. here's hoping someone out there has some.

[SamHO]

its jason and justin russo, grasshoper wasn't ever in it. They play around a lot in NYC. Look them up on MySpace music

[Drtano]
