SUMMARY: RUNNING TIME: 5:07 Min.
This live 1993 performance of 10,000 Maniacs comes from their MTV Unplugged album recorded from the same-named cable TV series. Natalie Merchant was still the group’s lead vocalist at the time.
REVIEW:
This low-key, piano-driven ballad enjoys a beautiful sound, though Natalie Merchant’s soft vocals are initially almost too faint to be audible. Once her thoughtful voice comes to life, this tune transforms into possibly the album’s underrated gem. Concluding their MTV Unplugged concert, 10,000 Maniacs chose this album’s finale well.
BRIAN’S ODD MOON RATING: 8 Stars
