I never knew what a true sell out was until Sugar Ray. The definition of sell out was sealed with post Fergie BEP. Pre-Fergie BEP's songs had message, and were insightful. I highly reccomend the song with Esthero. Can't remember the name of it, but I remember when it came out, that it was one of the better songs of it's time IMO.
I'm in the boat that thinks that Alanis's version is much better than the regular. It's sad that the music industry is now making money of the packaging, and not the product. But it's making money, so they don't care.
There's a reason why I've only purchased maybe 3 or 4 CDs since 2000.
