They included a 'boy band' spoof with all the dance moves and a 'Public Enemy' style rap section (as a joke) along with their 'normal' songs. I can understand the appeal even though I never bought a CD. |
Right on, Daphne! I'm a Toronto native myself and can remember those days somewhat (although I was very young then). Barenaked Ladies' tape was on Sam the Record Man's store shelves along with a new tape called
Nevermind and of course twin Guns N' Roses albums plus that eye-catching Michael Jackson one with "Black Or White" on it.
It would be several years later before I'd even heard of Pink Floyd. Being five years old... I was more into, um, Raffi.
