Default Who sings that song...

A kind of pop-mod rock song that featured an animated video of a high school guy in love with a girl who is dating a big jock. guy gets the girl in the end kinda thing.

It was posted somewhere on here (i thought it was the pointless video link thread) but i cannot find it through searches or on google or anything. drivin me nuts

It could be a song from a group called Bowling For Soup called - "Girl All the Bad Guys Want"

Sorta fits what you are describing though not exactly.

Thought I'd give it a stab and try finding what you're looking for. All I came across was this video.

Wow, that takes me back...

I'll keep thinking about it though.

Who sing's the song "Let your love flow, like a mountainstream..." It's an old country music song from the 80's? I am trying to load up on what I call Cougar Songs, so I can sit and watch all the older people from my work breaking it down on the dancefloor. It's fun watching older drunk people dance. P.S. the best song to do this is Heartache Tonight by the Eagles.

Heres one: who sings that song that has been around since the early 1990's, and still gets played on mainstream rock radio. It has some lyrics that have something to do with Captain Jean Luc Picard, and the chorus goes "everybody knows that the world is full of stupid people, meet me at the mission at midnight we'll divy up there"...someone please tell me because i've heard this song for over a decade now and have no idea who it is. I don't even really like it, but for some reason that song seems to have stuck around for a long time.

Thank you. These refreshments must still get royalties from that one song, right? Is it enough to keep them from having regular jobs now? I just can't believe that song stuck around rock radio for so long and still gets played.

The theme to "King of the Hill" is also by the Refreshments.
