Tonic 🎶 Head On Straight 🎶 Lemon Parade…
Hey yall… so I have two more great songs from Tonic for you…
“Head on Straight”
• Album: Head on Straight
• Year: 2o02
“Lemon Parade”
• Album: Lemon Parade
• Year: 1996
And here’s some cool facts about the band…
• The name “Tonic” comes from music theory — the tonic is the home note of a scale.. They chose it because they wanted their songs to feel grounded.. centered.. and real…
• “If You Could Only See” became one of the most-played rock songs of the late ’90s.. but the band actually thought deeper tracks like “Lemon Parade” better represented who they really were…
• Emerson Hart (lead singer) wrote many of their songs while dealing with personal struggles — addiction.. recovery.. and relationships — which is why their lyrics hit with that raw… honest edge….
• They turned down being over-polished… Labels wanted them slicker… but Tonic pushed to keep their sound emotional and imperfect — part of why they connect so well with listeners who love real feeling over radio gloss…
• They reunited after a long break because fans never stopped asking for them — and when they came back… they kept the same heart instead of chasing modern trends…
I hope you enjoy 😉 `.°~

Our Lady Peace 🎶 4am 🎶 Supermans Dead…
Hey y’all… welcome…
So we’ve got two songs today — and as a bonus.. a live cut too… that’s always a good day 😎
“4am” and “Superman’s Dead” both debuted in 1997 on the album Clumsy..
This entire record affected me deeply… it moved me.. I spent hours alone in my room back then.. learning all these songs on my guitar… great times..
Also… the lead singer of Our Lady Peace has one of the most unique voices — and names — in music…
His name is Raine Maida… pronounced Rain 🌧 MAY-duh…
So anyways… here ya go…
hope you enjoy… 🎶
Love this.. beautiful..👇💯💥🤟❤️🔥 The End Is Where We Begin…
