Stiff Richards says:This is a cover of a song originally performed by a band from Arcata, CA called Durango 95. They opened for us somewhere up in the Humboldt County get-paid-in-beer-and-weed circuit, and this song just knocked us out. Matthew suggested a cover version and so we went in and tracked this - in one take, vocals and all. Our drummer at the time, the remarkable Tuan Titlestad, thought he was just warming up and that tape wasn't rolling. Fooled him :) What an amazing drum track he put down, unawares. And this, ladies and gents, gave rise to a word still popular in our studios today, the verb "to Tuan." Oh, apologies to Mark Wahlberg. He's cool and we're fans. But at the time when this was written, I believe it was his underwear billboard period, he symbolized something dreadful and this is a humorous rant about the vapidity of pop in the era of Clear Channel. So there.
