Customer Reviews What happened to popculture?? It looks like others agree that this music brings back major memories for the 20-somethin crowd around here. . No joke, if you grew up in the 90's you are going to feel seriously depressed (in a good way though! haha). . . Modern music just cant touch this. These guys along with greenday, pearl jam and the offspring were the reason the 90's kicked ***. Highly recommended album. . . although just beware that it will make you feel kinda sad about the direction music and popculture has gone these days. . . . A nice trip down memory lane The Gin Blossoms immediately conjured up fond memories of my post high school/early college years. I was perusing the cd racks last weekend at my local public library when I stumbled upon "Outside Looking In: The Best of The Gin Blossoms". I was in on the band long before "Hey Jealousy" became a huge smash for the band. So nostalgic for the past, I checked out the cd. I almost forgot just how catchy the band's music was. They were candy for my ears. The band really had a knack for cracking out one catchy pop/rock song after another. Sure the band had a few misses too. I never liked "Mrs. Rita". That has always been my least favorite Gin Blossom song because it is so devoid of a good pop hook. I was so pleased that the band included my personal favorite songs "Cajun Song" and "Until I Fall Away" (which I always liked more than the overplayed "Hey Jealousy"). I'm glad I picked up "Outside Looking In". It brought back memories of life that was simpler (and devoid of bills and rent). A topnotch keeper ! These songs will be played over and over forever!. This is just perfect! All of the Blossom's hits combined on one handy cd! If you love these guys or some of their numerous hits you can't go wrong with this cd. .
