Hidden Gems From The B-Side.. Life Side (Week 7)

Tonic 🎶 You Wanted More 🎶 Waltz With Me…

Hey yall… today the spotlight lands on Tonic…
They’re excellent if you ask me.. I was so impacted by their music back in the mid-90s… and they’ve stayed one of my favorites through the years.. I still perform their songs to this day… because they live deep in me. They formed in 1993 in Los Angeles.. with Emerson Hart leading the way on vocals… and they’ve always had a way of mixing honesty.. heart.. and melody in a way that just hits life right where it lives…

I’ve got two songs for you today…

🎵 You Wanted More — 1999 — from the album Sugar… (also it was featured on the soundtrack from the movie “American Pie…”)

🎵 Waltz With Me — also from Sugar 1999… a beautiful track…

Hope you enjoy… press play and let the songs do what they do…

Hidden Gems From The B-Side.. Life Side (Week 6)

Our Lady Peace 🎶 Somewhere Out There 🎶 Clumsy…

Hey yall… I got two more OLP songs for you…

Somewhere Out There… 2o02.. from the album Gravity…

Clumsy… 1997… from the album Clumsy…

Just some cool info… they took their name from the novel The End of Alice by A.M. Homes…
It’s meant to feel poetic and symbolic rather than religious — a phrase that sounds gentle but carries weight..

Also.. they have many platinum albums.. and Frontman Raine Maida is known for.. writing lyrics inspired by psychology.. philosophy.. and literature.. Leaving meanings intentionally open — many songs feel emotional first.. literal second
That’s why tracks like Clumsy still hit even if you can’t fully explain them… hope you enjoy…
