I want to hear the song "Walk on the Ocean"


Search
: walk on the ocean

Why: Yesterday, I told Katrina I listened to Toad the Wet Sprocket (the album Coil) on the way to Disneyland. She didn't know who they are.
Me: You probably know some of their songs. They're very 90s.
Katrina: What, like Buckcherry?
No, not like Buckcherry.

Answer: Hell right.
This song reminds me of that movie The Beach (2000).

The More You Know: Toad the Wet Sprocket's most popular song was "All I Want," which reached #15 in 1992. It reminds me of that show "California Dreams" that I used to watch when SBTB wasn't on.
Did their crappy band play it or something? Sometimes I wonder.

  1. "All I Want"! I know that one! I've never heard "Walk on the Ocean" though. And I think by Buckcherry, I meant Savage Garden. But whatever, same thing. All 90's bands sounded the same

  5. Who is Buckcherry? When I think of 90's bands, I always think of the Blind Melon song that had the bumble bee girl in it.

  6. Ariana, Buckcherry does, for lack of a better term, stripper music. Like their songs are about doing cocaine and having sex. They're kind of like a musically-better Limp Bizkit.

    And Toad the Wet Sprocket is good times! John Mayer also does a good cover of "Walk On The Ocean", I believe.

  7. I don't think I actually know a single Buckcherry song, the name just popped into my head. I suspect because I was thinking of the "cherry cola" line from the Savage Garden song. I'm easily confused
