The Dark Art of Music Discovery in the Mid 90s

In the mid 90s music discovery often worked like this you hear and or play a song on the radio it scares you at first for personal reasons. And that was stuck on you by failure. This is not one of those elitist knucklehead deals where a cool underground guitar band transforms and therefore validates a big dance pop radio hit. This song was always fantastic. I knew that even back when I didn't know shit about shit otherwise. Let's just say that failures cover of this song was a shocking and delightful convergence of my many interests.
