ah, thank you for this. My entire cd collection is in storage 3000 miles away (what was I thinking?)

Great song by an awesome band, thanks!

You're welcome =)

Nope - this is the original. Song was written by Dom Leone, who died in 1989. Performed by his band Ed's Redeeming Qualities - covered by the Breeders (Carrie B. of Ed's performed some with the Breeders too).

you know, it all makes sense now. If the Pixies/Breeders/Ed' Redeeming Qualities were all Boston bands, they might cover each other's songs.

I always liked the Breeder's cover, but this is awesome. I just listened to Lawn Dart and now I can hear that this is totally their style. Sweet.

Aw, I loved these guys. "Ed's Basement", Sunday nights at the Rat in Boston...some of the best shows I've ever seen. Thanks for uploading!

I remember buying an Ed's Redeeming Qualities 45 with four songs on it: My Apartment, Lawn Dart, The Boy I Worked With, and one other...awesome stuff!

Thanks for loading this up to Youtube, I've had it in my head all day and I love seeing Dom's music remembered.

A friend of mine at UNH introduced me to their music and I never stopped liking it.

This sounds like a studio cut. I prefer the live version from Big Grapefruit Clean-up Job.
