11/16/12- Sponge- Molly (Sixteen Candles)

Some songs have either a lyric or melody that get buried in to your brain only to resurface at some random point in the future. This is one of those songs. Although Sponge only had two radio hits- this tune and one called Plowed- both of which can be filed in the post grunge mid 90's sound- (others include the Gin Blossoms, Collective Soul, and Fuel (to name only a few). These bands and tunes had their day, but for the most part are now long forgotten- Until that day where that word, phrase or melody crawls out of the inner most folds of your brain. Last night something came up in a conversation with Jess where the words "don't ask why" where spoken. Just like that, "POW!" this song found its way back in to my consciousness. Find those songs in your life- they are long lost friends that deserve your renewed attention.
