Gen X Check

A friend posted this video from back in the day...



What's funny is that I was kind of a fan of the Crash Test Dummies. I loved, loved, loved God Shuffled His Feet...almost the whole album, but especially the title track and "Afternoons & Coffeespoons"... except that one track, the one that was their biggest hit, got on my last damn nerve so hard.

Fortunately the cassette deck in my car had auto-FF so you could skip to the next track. I'll bet that, with sophisticated enough measuring devices, that length of the magnetic tape (which is still in the attic somewhere) is measurably thicker than the rest of the ribbon for having hardly been played.

Here, enjoy the much better "Afternoons & Coffeespoons"...
