hearing this while parked at a CVS the other day is the first time I got sad listening to this song :(
I do love that the Ataris' cover of this has faded into the background. whereas you still hear like, Alien Ant Farm's "Smooth Criminal" on occasion from that era.
also Henley says he did actually see a Deadhead sticker on a Cadillac but he may have been making it up.

one of the things I love about the DJ Sammy version is that it sounds exactly like every trance-pop song from that era and whenever I hear it I'm back at school, taking my Standard Grade exams and drinking in the park, the nostalgia is even more pronounced. Making it sound like the most generic period piece really works with the song itself.
