"bunch of crazy white people... "


Every Billboard Modern Rock Chart #1 through 2005, listed in order of preference.  

18. Smashing Pumpkins, "1979"

March 2-8, 1996



Made me nostalgiac for stolen moments of misbegotten youth before I'd really had any or knew for sure what the lyrics were. The video helped, I'll admit, but that metronomic "Dancing In The Dark" uplift works fine on its own.

We don't even care to shake these zipper blues
And we don't know just where our bones will rest
To dust, I guess
Forgotten and absorbed into the earth below

Comments:
Uh, this should be number one. They are not crazy white people though. And this is one of the best songs/videos of all time. This makes me nostalgic just thinking about it...
