Write-Up:
This is a serious trip back to 1997 that weirdly makes me think of 1999 when Ryan Phillipe and Sarah Michelle Gellar were in their obvious primes. I can't think of anything else but Cruel Intentions when I first hear this song it's weird. Does that happen to anyone else? Anyway, this band really screwed their pooch with this song as they were not given legal permission to sample the main riff of the song from Andrew Loog Oldham's song which hilariously enough was a cover of a Rolling Stones' song. After the court was finished with the band they were bankrupt and Mick Jagger and Kieth Richards bankrolled the profits and got songwriting credits of The Verves' song itself. Bummer. It must have sucked to be them. They were able to produce a 4th and final album to date 11 years later but that must have been one hell of a kick to their egos considering how long it took them to regroup and give it another shot.
