Let’s keep going! Two more as Bonus tunes!

First bonus is the lesser known song “Excuse Me Mr.” Which also had a music video made for it and was the fifth radio single released. Gene goes on about how they should have recorded a follow up album sooner. He seems to be right given this 1995 release was the last nineties full length album they released.

Second & last Bonus is the single from No Doubts first album 1992’s “No Doubt” the song “Trapped In A Box”. No Doubts 1992 debut was on the same big major label as 1995’s Tragic Kingdom” (Interscope) but was early and got literally no mainstream play. That said it’s a catchy album that is just lesser known. Enjoy the tune!
