I had this Edie Brickell and the New Bohemians album Shooting Rubberbands at the Stars virtually on permanent rotate in my car’s cassette player (!!) when it came out. Along with Chuck Girard’s Written on the Wind, Paul Clark’s Hand to the Plow and Vangelis’ Chariots of Fire. Good times.
Fantastic music.
Dedicated to Cally.

Great song.
I was 17 and had just arrived in New Zealand. I spent many hours driving around the Eastern Beaches in my first car listening to this via a cassette player as well.
Music is amazing. There is a song for everything!
