It came from the nineties (Vol. 31)

Oddly enough the first time I ever hear “The Freshman” was at an open mic night at the UIUC Courtyard Cafe back in the fall of 1996. Some guy was playing the song when I commented to Kris, “That is a really great song,” only to hear him reply, “It’s a cover.” That doesn’t change the fact that the song is good. That and I really hate Lenny Kravitz. Really.

MP3 | The Verve Pipe – The Freshman
MP3 | Joe Public – Live & Learn
MP3 | Lenny Kravitz – It Ain’t Over Til It’s Over
MP3 | Squirrel Nut Zippers – Hell

    1. Joe Public was the second cd I ever bought way back in 7th grade, Nirvana’s Nevermind being the 1st.

    2. I always enjoyed Mustard Plug’s cover of The Freshman
