Cracker: "Been Around the World"

It's not really a surprise, but Cracker really packed the High Noon 13 years after the height of their fame. Their set was pretty low-key -- reflecting the sound of their non-commercial years, which you can hear on their latest, Greenland -- but was quite well received by the audience. Most songs, including this one, were slightly extended jams on the studio versions, all of which built up to a more than two-hour set. I wasn't quite sure what I was getting when I bought my ticket for this show -- they haven't made a record I've really liked in about ten years -- but the career-spanning and creative set they played was well worth it.

Cracker is amazing, I don't believe how many people don't know about the band. I really think this band should've gone national in acknowledgement when it first came out. This is my favorite song by Cracker. This song too just get enough credit.

Oh Yes !  Cracker is probably the most underrated band in the world.

Native Americans believe in a spirit animal. Well this is my spirit song.
