Shirley Manson was an epic front woman, and Butch Vig was the architect of 90s sound period. To go from producing and engineering the sound on Nirvanas "Nevermind" to drumming and producing Garbage, that dude is a machine that spits out talent.
the 90s were actually a pretty eclectic mix and I think Alternative summed it up as an umbrella term for the mix of genres you heard as a lot of it was just different. Pearl Jam and Nirvana were kinda the epitomes of grunge, and Soundgarden in some regards, but Garbage was never a grunge band or sound. I could never really put a label on their genre as they invented their own style and sound. That's what made them so great. Shirley and the band actually consciously chose to distinguish themselves from grunge with their sound. She didn't like grunge. For that matter, I never cared for the grunge bands of that era but by the mid '90s there were a lot of unique styles getting airplay on the Alternative format radio stations at the time. Even though Butch Vig, founding member, drummer and producer of Garbage, produced the definitive sound for some of the biggest grunge acts in the early '90s like Nirvana, he said they (Garbage) all wanted to do something unique and different and their influences came from all over. Grunge bands didn't utilize keyboards, synth, samples, and minimal tech really while Garbage utilized nearly every technology that was available at the time to create their sounds. And you tell a lot on Garbage 2.0. There's no other album that comes close to sounding like it.
Hace un par de días en eso , tengo 54 años , Debbie Harry , Siouxie Sioux (mi amor), Shirley Manson para mí las cantantes más hermosas , aunque también le daría unos besos a Joan Jett jajajaja
Well, the 90's were rife with sampling/reusing material from 1950 to 1989. So this was no exception. But the fact they made it sound different from the rest the song is what makes it good. If it would have been as heavy as the verses, it wouldn't have worked. Is not about it being a sample/copy, it's about how it's used.
It was so awesome to celebrate Shirley's 55th birthday with her last night!!! Still an amazing performer after 25 yrs!! I have been a fan since the beginning and it was an honor and a privilege to witness this magic!
Johnny Cash was good. Led Zepplin was good. Prince was good. NWA was good. Plenty of good music in the 2000s. You just need to stop being an old fuck. Try a mild dose of Adventure Club to cure the boomer blues. The 2000s had dubstep. the 2010s had drill (meh). The 2020s have phonk. And also Vengent - who I strongly suggest you taste. Try the phonk. Please - ignore the silly TH-cam shorts. Phonk drops notes. Music changes - so should we.
Never regretted buying GARBAGE V2.0 ... that album was an emotional roller coaster for me... my life theme songs were all in ONE masterpiece...every song ...that album made me cry with it's beats, lyrics and vocals resonating deep what I'm going through at that time. The band was so intelligent in making each song very personal to their listeners...Thank YOU...

I always wanted this album when it came out in 1998, I was in high school and never had enough money to buy it. I remember going every weekend to the music store just to see it and have it in my hands. I also remember that the CD was more expensive than the average albums at that time :/ so my best friend lent me the cd from time to time specially on weekends and I enjoyed playing it a lot for several months until I eventually stopped listening to it around 2000. My friend and I spent hours talking about their music and videos, Version 2.0 is definitely part of the music of my life. My friend is now far away living in Canada and I stayed in Mexico. I currently have the anniversary edition on CD and on Vinyl :) and I have been able to see them live a couple of times, so now I can die happily.
This song is awesome !! They nailed it. Garbage is a great band....My younger brother Robert introduced me to this band over 25 years ago. And I can't thank him enough. He knew great music. "Thank you my brother Bobby !!"...I miss you more than you can imagine. Rest in peace my brother. ❤
Garbage was one of the opening bands for the Alanis Morrisette concert I went to about a month ago. When they played this song I got SO hyped. Sounds just as great live.
This album definitively made the identity of the band, adding to a traditional rock band a digital touch, creating an experimental & hybrid style. This video clip represent it all. Pure genius !
jeadelmann90 thanks man its a great game i have the greatest hits edition without a scratch until this day =) love it and when i play it automatically takes me back to that days time never pass with that game lol
I have to come back to this every once in a while for a dose of nostalgia. The 1st time I heard this song, it was played on my favorite radio station WFNX back in 1998. I fell head over heels in love with Shirley's voice and went out to buy the Garbage CD from Sam Goody the day after hearing it. It's one of my favorite albums, I still listen to it on a regular basis. Brings back a lot of good memories from another lifetime that feels like 100 years ago lol.
this song should always be heard at full volume. This song doesn't hold back; it packs a punch, it embodies chaos, and it just sounds amazing when it rips through your ear drums through headphones. You want to get your day going? Blast this one.
Was having some beers with a few friends and one guy said he didn't want to hear garbage. I said OK and immediately played Garbage. He'll never live it down he now loves Garbage.
"hey man we´re cool, having some beers, let´s talk about good vibes, i dont want to hear garbage from anyone" ... "aaa boy YOU WILL HEAR GARBAGE" Another person save by a good friend, thank you!
I love listening to music from my carefree days! Great remembering the easy college life, even if I didn't realize it was easy then. I am very choosy about good music and listened to mostly classic rock but Garbage (STP, Bush, DMB and several others) stood out at the end of the 90s, the last time there was decent, original music in the mainstream.
Played gran turismo 2 when i was like 6.......now I'm 20, stumbled upon this song, and had a ridiculous flashback. But i also want to credit people who didn't just play GT2 and rock to this song. its all memories
I love her look, that hair, that dress, those boots, matching undies, the choker, the way she dances, the intense movement editing, action, production value, amazing. Shirley in B&W visually stunning & I love her voice //
I like the song, lyrics and idea of bending and breaking to bring someone pleasure, love, passion, emotions, feelings, engagement, loving and liking someone, teasing someone, that high octane ping of someone you find super attractive, you like their look, their eyes, their voice, their style, their vibe, everything about them, even their imperfections making you giggle on the inside, real deep attraction that perpetuates the human civilization via reproduction //
I remember the very first time I listened to this song and the impact. Loved the raw riffs, so electrifying and Shirley's voice is just... Ah, it all sound so good together even +20 years later.

This song put on the face of everybody why Garbage is One of great examples how a great group could be underestimated. They have one of most impressive discography ever recorded, some of most iconic songs ever played, and some of most original videoclips you will watch in your entire life. Success is not only how many times your songs will be played on radios and music platforms, success could be your songs proving being immune to time, to outdating, and in this way, Garbage is one of most succesful groups of all time!!!.
I was 7 or 8 and my mum played this album on repeat during the late 1990's in her rundown 1994 Mercedes Benz saloon she got in the divorce settlement. All 5 kids stuffed inside a sweaty car on our way to school in London. It guzzled petrol and spurted water. It broke down multiple times. But this album kept us going.
For sure! Many years ago, for my 40th birthday, my wife asked me what I wanted for my birthday. Showed her this video and said, "I want you to dress up like her...". And... She did!! Not the exact same dress, boots or underwear, but damn close. Did her makeup the same and styled her then similar "bob" to look like this. BEST birthday in a long time!! Relevant info... She has similar red hair and is built more or less the same as Shirley (slightly wider shoulders, but that just enhances her narrow waist). Anyway... Dream come true. Nearly.
No clue why but ever since I heard this bands name I wanted to give them a shot. Been listening to them for a little under a year now and loving it. Something about that 90’s sound is irreplaceable
Still such a phenomenal production. So great articulation as a singer with fantastic expressiveness in vocal style and amazing job owning the mic on a great performance.Truly Such a great talented performer..props. cheers 🌞 🎶 🌹
Timeless, immortal hit, i've been in love with this masterpiece since my childhood ,(heard it Gran Turismo) and to this day(im now 30).This song just touches your soul and makes you dissolve in some mystical, surreal flows, fills your whole being with purest nostalgia, aaaand of course this wonderful moment in 00:40, that, no, THAT very special sound... What a song, what a feeling,what a voice... There will forever be some special place in my heart and memory for this GOLD!!!
Great song to listen to psych yourself up/inspire you for a sports contest. It welcomes the difficulties to come, yet is defiant. "Heaven knows what you gotta prove..."
I was DJ in the 90s, Garbage was one of my favorites groups. 93-99 were great years of for the music. Grunge influenced a lot at the beggining but the sound began to change at the middle of 90s. Garbage, Republic, Elastica, Hooverphonic, Portishead, Massive Attack, Air, Mika, Duft Punk, Chemical Brothers, The Prodigy, Blur, etc...
I remember that too. There was a really great window in the mid '90s that produced a lot of really eclectic sounds that came over the Alternative radio stations of that time. Alternative was really multiple genres then. All the bands you mentioned, and The Cranberries (for such a popular band then, I almost forgot them). Loved Massive Attack. Daft Punk has sure stood the test of time and bobbed to the surface again and again. I was a guy who was a metal head before that era and liked the prog metal that came out in the late '80s. I remembered kinda hating grunge for knocking Queensryche off the radio just when they reached their peak with The Empire album. Back to the mid '90s,..there were a lot of really good woman fronted groups in that timeframe ( i think most came out of the UK). But yeah, mid-late 1993 - 1996 was probably the best window in the '90s and it really kind of drowned out the grunge from the earliest period of the '90s (at least that was my impression and I was glad for it). I don't know when in the late '90s the quality started to decline, but I want to say '98ish or whenever Brittney Spears and the Spice Girls started getting radio airplay. You could tell the mass produced formulas were returning to hook pre-teens on mindless pop. I remember Shirley Manson saying at a concert that she wanted to dropkick Sporty? or Posh Spice. I'm actually surprised we had such a long run of good music and labels that allowed such diverse creative talent to rise to the top. Interesting times. The other thing I recall as I was reading a lot of business magazines at the time was that Clear Channel had bought up the majority of the Alternative radio format stations by sometime in 1996 and that's when I noticed the format of bands and styles getting airplay started to become more limited and one dimensional. By that time, all media outlets were getting snapped up and owned by I believe one of only three media conglomerates.
I would always sing when my brother and I played Rockband together years ago. I’ll never forget 7 year old me wailing this song into the microphone. I’ve known all the lyrics my whole life. Love it!
Me too! I added it to my playlist a few months ago not knowing why it sounded so familiar and nostalgic to me and now I know why! What a great game, amazing soundtrack!

I always wanted this album when it came out in 1998, I was in high school and never had enough money to buy it. I remember going every weekend to the music store just to see it and have it in my hands. I also remember that the CD was more expensive than the average albums at that time :/ so my best friend lent me the cd from time to time specially on weekends and I enjoyed playing it a lot for several months until I eventually stopped listening to it around 2000. My friend and I spent hours talking about their music and videos, Version 2.0 is definitely part of the music of my life. My friend is now far away living in Canada and I stayed in Mexico. I currently have the anniversary edition on CD and on Vinyl :) and I have been able to see them live a couple of times, so now I can die happily.
I liked your experience about this album as I also love those era
Genial historia. Este disco también es parte de mi historia musical
This song is awesome !! They nailed it. Garbage is a great band....My younger brother Robert introduced me to this band over 25 years ago. And I can't thank him enough. He knew great music. "Thank you my brother Bobby !!"...I miss you more than you can imagine. Rest in peace my brother. ❤
Garbage was one of the opening bands for the Alanis Morrisette concert I went to about a month ago. When they played this song I got SO hyped. Sounds just as great live.
Ah, but Garbage shouldn't be opening for anyone! Shirley has it head over heals over Alanis Morissette! She should be opening for Shirley!
@Shannen Redman - Hell yeah! I was at the Bowl too! I rarely go to concerts, but I wouldn’t have missed that for anything! 👍
I saw then open for Smashing Pumpkins ... Awesome
Garbage and Alanis? Goodness, a sounds like a great night
This album definitively made the identity of the band, adding to a traditional rock band a digital touch, creating an experimental & hybrid style. This video clip represent it all. Pure genius !
Read it with the Patrick Bateman's voice

ahhh nothing like the good old days of the 90s i love garbage and love gran turismo 2 what a pleasure to play while listening to this =)
Agree..

thanks man its a great game i have the greatest hits edition without a scratch until this day =) love it and when i play it automatically takes me back to that days time never pass with that game lol
I have to come back to this every once in a while for a dose of nostalgia. The 1st time I heard this song, it was played on my favorite radio station WFNX back in 1998. I fell head over heels in love with Shirley's voice and went out to buy the Garbage CD from Sam Goody the day after hearing it. It's one of my favorite albums, I still listen to it on a regular basis. Brings back a lot of good memories from another lifetime that feels like 100 years ago lol.
Rock the boat radio?😊
this song should always be heard at full volume. This song doesn't hold back; it packs a punch, it embodies chaos, and it just sounds amazing when it rips through your ear drums through headphones. You want to get your day going? Blast this one.
no sea mamon
Just came across this for the first time in years, I'm 29 was only a kid when it came out. Described it perfectly. What a fucking song.
It is. As all good music: it deserves VOLUME !!!!! :)
its especially good through noise cancellers at full blast
You're all heading for deafness. Lol
Was having some beers with a few friends and one guy said he didn't want to hear garbage. I said OK and immediately played Garbage. He'll never live it down he now loves Garbage.
You doing gods work right there
Well, there is more than a subtle difference between Garbage and just plain garbage. ;)
"hey man we´re cool, having some beers, let´s talk about good vibes, i dont want to hear garbage from anyone" ... "aaa boy YOU WILL HEAR GARBAGE"
Another person save by a good friend, thank you!
🤣
Shirley Manson, one of the coolest frontwomen ever, the 90's were the perfect time for her to show up, and i'm glad she did.
Спасибо, ребята. Вы настоящие люди и музыка у вас гениальная!
you know a song is good when it stands the test of time and sounds good from 1998 till 2015.
EXACTLY!
+David Wakelee You are soooooooooo right, my friend! :)
+David Wakelee
What's so fucking special about 2015?
+OriginLinear Your mom.
+OriginLinear it isn't special. We just have really shitty music. :P
The deep bass tones in this song have always haunted me. Love it.
I love listening to music from my carefree days! Great remembering the easy college life, even if I didn't realize it was easy then.
I am very choosy about good music and listened to mostly classic rock but Garbage (STP, Bush, DMB and several others) stood out at the end of the 90s, the last time there was decent, original music in the mainstream.
+RazorEdgeBulli tommorow.
+Billy Stewart STFU with your STP and late 90's crave! you're the reason this generation is coming to an ABRUPT end! MR. BILLY STEWART JAZZ FUCKER!
+fred21679 Dude, you need to get checked and, perhaps, consider psychological help. If my comment got you that worked up, you need help, brother.
+fred21679

Classic. Always makes me want to turn the volume all the way to the max !
So glad they have a new album out. Long live Garbage and real music.
Oh dear God I didn't know that!!!! Thanks for sharing! Prayers answered :)
+MsPark so true! The new cd is amazing!
+Sondra Sebald heeeloooo
Saw Garbage last week...they were nothing short of amazing live. They so just as good as 20 years ago. Highly recommend it
If you are a true fan you must get in touched with me i know the secret and hidden story behind push it we must meet un person
@@oliviahernandez6788what the heck?
Played gran turismo 2 when i was like 6.......now I'm 20, stumbled upon this song, and had a ridiculous flashback. But i also want to credit people who didn't just play GT2 and rock to this song. its all memories
i had the same experience just today man, cheers buddy
Kwangming Teh greatest racing game of all time
GT2 was one of my first videogames and gosh I was almost brought to tears when I heard this song after a friend recommended listening to Garbage
i feel the same thing about this song.. so good memories
ZAJEBIASZCZE !
I love her look, that hair, that dress, those boots, matching undies, the choker, the way she dances, the intense movement editing, action, production value, amazing. Shirley in B&W visually stunning & I love her voice //
I like the song, lyrics and idea of bending and breaking to bring someone pleasure, love, passion, emotions, feelings, engagement, loving and liking someone, teasing someone, that high octane ping of someone you find super attractive, you like their look, their eyes, their voice, their style, their vibe, everything about them, even their imperfections making you giggle on the inside, real deep attraction that perpetuates the human civilization via reproduction //
I remember the very first time I listened to this song and the impact. Loved the raw riffs, so electrifying and Shirley's voice is just... Ah, it all sound so good together even +20 years later.
It's a powerful window into the female id. The whole album is.
It's a difficult listen for males, especially for male feminists.
@@zimriel when you're gay you always resonate with female creativity, I guess due to the the fact that homophobia and misogyny come from the same place.
@@AlexOrozco-Social-Pariah It is quite possible for male homosexuals to despise women, to call them "fish" or "bimbos".
But that's not misogyny because... I guess because by definition. Same as "racism" can only happen from whites
This is one of my warmup songs on the drums. It's bloody brilliant and so much fun to play.
Garbage are awesome. End of.
Never realized how damn good this drummer is
You know the drummer is butch vig - He produced Nirvana's classic album, "Nevermind".
Butch Vig is amazing.
Lol butch vig made nevermind and dookie
He's a legend
@@hamilton5480 He didn't do dookie. Dookie was produced by Rob Cavallo. Butch Vig did produce 21st century breakdown.
I love Garbage's music videos - the creativity is off the charts.
I had SUCH a huge crush for shirley when I was in my teenage years. Gillian Anderson and Shirley Manson...
guess I always had a thing for redheads
Yes!!!!!
Know what you mean something special about redheads
Same here 😬
Same! 90s kids with a thing for redheads, unite!
Same thing, hallo from Russia.)
Kickass band. Shirley Manson. I still have a crush on her. Beautiful lady, killer sexy voice, good musician, good guitar player and an artist. Band still rocks after all these years. 2021.
Right Sir
Me 2
i think we y´all have a crush on shirley haha
It’s basically Shirley with three old men lol
She surely had something... attitude and voice maybe...
You can look but you can’t touch
I don’t think I like you much
Heaven knows what a girl can do
Heaven knows what you’ve got to prove
I think I’m paranoid
And complicated
I think I’m paranoid
Manipulate it
Chorus:
Bend me, break me, anyway you need me
All I want is you
Bend me, break me, breaking down is easy
All I want is you
I fall down just to give you a thrill
Prop me up with another pill
If I should fail, if I should fold
I nailed my fate to the sticking pole
I think I’m paranoid
Manipulated
I think I’m paranoid
Too complicated
Repeat chorus:
Ajajajajajah
I think I’m paranoid (2x)
Repeat chorus:
Steal me, deal me, anyway you heal me
Maim me, tame me, you can never change me
Love me, like me, come ahead and fight me
Please me, tease me, go ahead and leave me
Bend me, break me, any way you need me
As long as I want you baby it’s all right
Bend me, break me, any way you need me
As long as I want you baby it’s all right
Adhara Blanco congrats you know how copy and paste works
Years of mumbling and now it's like a new song
Great

Such a dope song! Saw them at Ottawa bluesfest just a couple days ago. She’s so bad ass!
This song put on the face of everybody why Garbage is One of great examples how a great group could be underestimated. They have one of most impressive discography ever recorded, some of most iconic songs ever played, and some of most original videoclips you will watch in your entire life.
Success is not only how many times your songs will be played on radios and music platforms, success could be your songs proving being immune to time, to outdating, and in this way, Garbage is one of most succesful groups of all time!!!.
She will always be a babydoll! 🤘❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ Love her!
My mom loved Shirley Manson. Rest in paradise Ma
It's so sad, hold on.Hug you
Your mom sounds fucking awesome!
Your mom was awesome then.
So sorry for your loss.
I love Shirley too, but I think We may have slightly different reasons!
Your mom was Awesome then!! my dad is Awesome too but i know he will leave this world someday so i understand you alot! Be strong!
I was 7 or 8 and my mum played this album on repeat during the late 1990's in her rundown 1994 Mercedes Benz saloon she got in the divorce settlement. All 5 kids stuffed inside a sweaty car on our way to school in London. It guzzled petrol and spurted water. It broke down multiple times. But this album kept us going.
This story strikes a real mood, y’know?
This is the song of my First love story....i had in Heart for ever
I’m on the same level. You’re not alone.
...And this is how you paint pictures with words, people. Awesome story by the way.
Hahaha my girl! Good one. Hope your mom is doing well.
Souds so great even 18 years later! not aged at all.
NiceCarsLover more than 18 years?! Mother of god it's hard to believe
Thanks, you just made me feel even older than I already felt. lol
well, it sounds great because 90's was a great decade. Oh god 20 years have already passed. I wanna back to 90's!
Shirley and the Band... DAUYUM! After decades, I still dream of a polka-dotted Scot dancing like NO OTHER! (CALL MEH SHIRLEY!)
very beautiful, beautiful voice(s) very sexy. and I will bet she can still can put a spell on us.
Shirley Manson is the sexiest woman in Rock
Great Band!
I absolutely agree🎵🎶🎶🔊🔊😀😀😀🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸⭐⭐⭐⭐💕💖
😄😄👍👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸💖💖🎵🎶🎵🔊🔊🔊⭐⭐👍👍
Shes the woman you want to have back you up in a fight lol
Amy lee imo
How bout it
my new favorite song, again.
YEP...this song still kicks ass, it is by far their best song
I was 8 years old singing this song, playing Rock Band with my 3 brothers. Good times
My God, this woman is spectacular, isn't she?
Who else's crush began with this very video?
1st video I saw was the song stupid girl on their 1st album. That's where my attraction started
True. My childhood celebrity crush. Other kids were into Pamela Anderson. I had a different taste, I guess.
For sure! Many years ago, for my 40th birthday, my wife asked me what I wanted for my birthday. Showed her this video and said, "I want you to dress up like her...". And... She did!! Not the exact same dress, boots or underwear, but damn close. Did her makeup the same and styled her then similar "bob" to look like this. BEST birthday in a long time!! Relevant info... She has similar red hair and is built more or less the same as Shirley (slightly wider shoulders, but that just enhances her narrow waist).
Anyway... Dream come true. Nearly.
No clue why but ever since I heard this bands name I wanted to give them a shot. Been listening to them for a little under a year now and loving it. Something about that 90’s sound is irreplaceable
God, The 90's was everything. If only one can turn back time.
Maybe we should make great 20s, it's 2020, let's make everything even better here and now :-) I wish you I nice weekend
The 80's were better!
ah, check out "i do coke" by feed me. Good underground artists are still out there, they're just you know, underground
You're like 17, calm down.
Still such a phenomenal production. So great articulation as a singer with fantastic expressiveness in vocal style and amazing job owning the mic on a great performance.Truly Such a great talented performer..props. cheers 🌞 🎶 🌹
This song gives me Rock Band 1 nostalgia
gran turismo
same
yusss
Yeah, this and say it ain't so
This song gives me real life growing up in the 90s nostalgia. Lol
Almost 20 years and I still think it's one of best songs eveeerrrrr :)
Right on most definitely the best song and music video ever to come from 1998 while with everything else ever🔊🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸😀😀😀⭐⭐💗💗
Timeless, immortal hit, i've been in love with this masterpiece since my childhood ,(heard it Gran Turismo) and to this day(im now 30).This song just touches your soul and makes you dissolve in some mystical, surreal flows, fills your whole being with purest nostalgia, aaaand of course this wonderful moment in 00:40, that, no, THAT very special sound... What a song, what a feeling,what a voice... There will forever be some special place in my heart and memory for this GOLD!!!
Love this song!
Such a cool and catchy song. Great Band.
Great song to listen to psych yourself up/inspire you for a sports contest. It welcomes the difficulties to come, yet is defiant. "Heaven knows what you gotta prove..."
This is my favorite Garbage song and video.
She’s SO PERFECT in this video and my goodness I love when she puts her whole fist in her mouth at 3:02 ;)
I was DJ in the 90s, Garbage was one of my favorites groups. 93-99 were great years of for the music. Grunge influenced a lot at the beggining but the sound began to change at the middle of 90s. Garbage, Republic, Elastica, Hooverphonic, Portishead, Massive Attack, Air, Mika, Duft Punk, Chemical Brothers, The Prodigy, Blur, etc...
Maaan, Daft Punk, Chemical Brothers, The Prodigy....what u made me remember lol! Fire times back then for sure!
I remember that too. There was a really great window in the mid '90s that produced a lot of really eclectic sounds that came over the Alternative radio stations of that time. Alternative was really multiple genres then. All the bands you mentioned, and The Cranberries (for such a popular band then, I almost forgot them). Loved Massive Attack. Daft Punk has sure stood the test of time and bobbed to the surface again and again. I was a guy who was a metal head before that era and liked the prog metal that came out in the late '80s. I remembered kinda hating grunge for knocking Queensryche off the radio just when they reached their peak with The Empire album. Back to the mid '90s,..there were a lot of really good woman fronted groups in that timeframe ( i think most came out of the UK). But yeah, mid-late 1993 - 1996 was probably the best window in the '90s and it really kind of drowned out the grunge from the earliest period of the '90s (at least that was my impression and I was glad for it). I don't know when in the late '90s the quality started to decline, but I want to say '98ish or whenever Brittney Spears and the Spice Girls started getting radio airplay. You could tell the mass produced formulas were returning to hook pre-teens on mindless pop. I remember Shirley Manson saying at a concert that she wanted to dropkick Sporty? or Posh Spice.
I'm actually surprised we had such a long run of good music and labels that allowed such diverse creative talent to rise to the top. Interesting times. The other thing I recall as I was reading a lot of business magazines at the time was that Clear Channel had bought up the majority of the Alternative radio format stations by sometime in 1996 and that's when I noticed the format of bands and styles getting airplay started to become more limited and one dimensional. By that time, all media outlets were getting snapped up and owned by I believe one of only three media conglomerates.
the whole composition is top-notch.chords are magical, love the guitar ravel solo, so simple yet so powerful, singer is bloody brilliant:D!!
This brings be back to my childhood playing Gran Turismo 2
***** I bet it does! I love hearing this when I play GT2! Great game!
Brings me back to playing rock band
Saquirodx X Wait! This song is one Rock Band?
Yup
***** hel yeah dude i was gonna comment the same shit
Take me back Shirley! All the way back to '98! Please?!
One of my favorite bridges in any song ever! Amazing band and amazing live!
Thanks Gran turismo 2 for sticking me with this song forever. I'd have never thought twice about this song otherwise.
Bruv 4 year old me went mental every time this song came on playing GT2. It just seemed to stand out from the rest of the soundtrack
I’m only 22 years old but I love this song. I learned all of my music taste from guitar hero and rock band
highfive, 22 and loved it! im into indie rock as well, try to listen to radiohead, its really good!
I know this song from Gran Turismo 2. Classic game and classic song.
WOW !!! this song is pure energy
Lorenetta::::::Ironically so is your picture!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!😉😈☺😇
We must meet in person i know the secret and hidden story behind push it
I would always sing when my brother and I played Rockband together years ago. I’ll never forget 7 year old me wailing this song into the microphone. I’ve known all the lyrics my whole life. Love it!
If the start in gran turismo no way to lose 🥰😂
heaven knows what a girl can do 🙌🎤🎧🎵

97-99 spanked ass. No getting away from it
This song brings me return MTV 90’S. Great song
Oh boy, this song keeps getting better and better. Pop music is so dead nowadays.
Can't stop listening to this song. Reminds me at my Childhood.
And of course it sounds like a game song. Neither I played a Title within.
The kind of girl your mother warned you about but of course in reality she's a bloody sweetheart..what a band a Real band
It's criminal that Garbage's Version 2.0 didn't win a Grammy.
Shirley is a rock goddess of the 90"s absolutely talented and beautiful.
She is, to this day, very cool and gorgeous, too.
