it's a pretty decent cover but can't compare w/ original

"When It's Over": the soundtrack to American innocence in the days before 9-11. After that the world was too cynical and world-weary for a man like Mark McGrath to flourish in it.

It's surprisingly terrific, actually. McGrath nails the vocal.
And, yeah, The Beach soundtrack was essential for me in the pre-Napster days when all I wanted was the new New Order song, Orbital, and UNKLE.

McGrath is flourishing as a host for Extra or Entertainment Tonight these days, isn't he?

i doubt that Jonsi would be a good TV show host, at least not after Sigur Ros's infamous NPR interview.

iirc Mr. McGrath did not do poorly the time I watched his performance on "Celebrity Jeopardy."

you mean "rock n roll jeopardy?" i think it saw that one.. he was wayyy schooled, iirc, like he killed the competition.

Some fake Jeopardy for good-looking, well-known people, yeah.

I need to get on that one then.

mcgrath has def spent his career - I dunno if 'playing dumb' is the right way to put it, but...

sugar ray probably could never make a credible appearance on "game of thrones."

If that sack of turds that call themselves Coldplay could, anyone can.

This is actually a hard question.

"All around the world statues crumble for me" is a great opening line

Sugar Ray and it’s not close.
