I think everyone had that Reel Big Fish phase for a minute. I remember a lot of trumpets making their way into 90's punk. Voodoo Glow Skulls bursting your ears with brass.

I mean it is a great song and they did certainly never write anything else exactly like it, but if you are the kind of weirdo who tries to get into radio acts you really like, you can find something. For the Association, I would say their most similar songs (again not to claim they are that similar, just that compared to their other lasting hits "Never My Love" and "Cherish," the following songs at least seem like they came from the same band) are "Pandora's Golden Heebie-Jeebies" and "Pegasus" (though I think that one was technically a solo project? Still on their box set though). Also "Windy" if you have somehow never heard that one.

None of those songs sound remotely like Along Comes Mary. Windy is not a bad song but it's pretty far off. Also you are a jerk for suggesting that anyone listen to Cherish, its so bad that i scratched it out of my copy of Along Comes The Association.

if you wanna rock slightly harder than The Barenaked Ladies but aren't comfortable with Sugar Ray because they rock a little too hard for you, there's always Smash Mouth.

Smash Mouth was too poppy and happy for me by the time it came out.
I liked ska but more serious stuff, man, like Mad Caddies. None of this sunshine and smiles bullshit. I was way too edgy for that

so now I want people to tell me specific songs that have the same groove/sound as walking on the sun since nothing else smash mouth has released is as close to being as good as that song is.

Lol, a ton of Doors songs have similar keyboard riffs.

please leave your NASA lies out of the smash mouth thread.

I prefer to give them the benefit of the doubt and believe they meant you can't walk on the sun while it is turned on but of course you can when it is switched off. How else would they do maintenance?

They had an early song I still remember for some reason:

I'm not a vegan and I have had sex
So some hardline guys tried to kick my rear end
If you're not like them they're gonna clean your clock
They're nothing but a bunch of jocks
They're antichoice, they're fascist youth
Their songs all sound like metal tunes

Indie sux, hardline sux, emo sux, you suck!

But maybe more appropriate to the thread is the classic Ska Sucks

Ska sucks
Ska revival isn't cool you stupid gently caress
The bands are only in it for the bucks
And if you don't believe me you're a schmuck
But the trend will die out with any luck

Rudy, a message to you Rudy
A message to you Rudy
A message to you Rudy
gently caress you, Rudy!
