Years Active: 2020  // Genre: Alternative Rock

In 1995, Matthew Sweet released 100% Fun, an alt-rock album best known for its lead-off track, the self-deprecating “Sick of Myself”. The album itself fared better commercially, and even made it onto Entertainment Weekly critic David Browne’s year’s-best list.

I was in a bad place the year mentally, and when I first heard this song, it had a different meaning than it does to me today.

Something in your eyes, that is keeping my hope alive.

But I’m sick of myself when I look at you,
something is beautiful and true…
World that’s ugly and a lie,
it’s hard to even want to try…
I’m beginning to think – maybe you don’t know…

I am pretty happy with how everything turned out on this one, even though I had to use quite a bit of studio magic to get the guitar solo sounding good. Enjoy!
