I was in middle school when this came out in '95. The bus driver was obsessed with it haha. It has a good message about how the affluent in society just tune out the disadvantaged--better them than me. Excellent music too.

Natalie Merchant is awesome. Tigerlily was one of my favorite albums of 1995. The tone of that guitar and the soft touch of those backing vocals gets me every time I hear this song.

Always loved the tone of her voice and her songwriting. She was very popular in the '90s, but oddly/sadly it seems she's not given much attention these days. Glad to see this reaction, which was spot on.

You summed the song up pretty well Tre. Hopefully you’ll review a few more Natalie Merchant/10,000 Maniac songs. She’s a beautiful woman but more importantly has a beautiful soul.

This was from my fave album of the 90's, aside from Toad the Wet Sprocket-Dulcinea album. Natalie Merchant was an inspiration to me as a woman when in my 20's and now in my 50's I still love it equally as much. Thanks for reacting to this song.

Literally forgot this song and how great this album was... If you were dating an "alternative" girl, back in the day, you had to own tigerlily... Guaranteed... Lol

The guitar bars are the work of Jennifer Turner. She was a female guitar goddess! Strong hands. Tough bars. Unfortunately her career kind of sputtered out after this. Don't know why. She's in her late forties now. Would love to see her get back on her horse and show out more.

Other great songs by her are Wonder, and Kind and Generous. She also had many hits with her band 10,000 Maniacs in the late 80s/early 90s

Saw the Maniacs in 92 or 93 in Austin. Incredible show. You couldn’t take your eyes off Natalie. Our Time In Eden is my fave Natalie record.

Guitarist is Jennifer Turner (fairly sure). Percussionist is Adrian Lopez Guevarra.

Tre, she had one of the prettiest voices of the female artists in the late '80s and '90s. This brings back fond memories. Thanks for the reaction! (ps~The background singer with the high voice does not sound like Natalie to me, but I don't know for sure if it's her or not. I'd bet it's someone else.)

This was my #1 karaoke go-to (yes, I was a basic white girl at one point) because it's the best of ALL worlds. I absolutely love the soul she puts into this! It's palpable. Girl was on fire here! Wonder. Kind and Generous. Yes, these are also amazing, but Carnival will forever be my always!
