They released only one album, 1998's 'Maybe You've Been Brainwashed Too', a critically acclaimed pop rock album heavily influenced by classic rock and soul of the 60s and 70s that contained— amongst radio-friendly pop tracks and love songs— strong criticism of corporate America and modern culture. Aside from Alexander, the only other permanent member of the band was keyboardist and former child actress Danielle Brisebois. The remainder of the line-up was a fluctuating one revolving around the two of them, with the goal being to bring in a variety of musicians from many genres.
The band is best known for their debut single, titled "You Get What You Give", which became a top 5 hit in the United Kingdom and has garnered major U.S. airplay for years. The song's celebrity-dissing lyrics at its end provided a minor a spectacle, with Alexander saying that the media misunderstood the meaning. Despite the song's radical messages, anti-materialistic as well as pro-youth, it's ironically been used in many films and even a famous advertising spot.
Tired of touring and promotional interviews, with the group becoming more and more commercialized, Alexander disbanded the group in mid 1999 before the release of their second single, titled "Someday We'll Know". He has successfully focus on writing and producing songs for other artists, winning a Grammy award for his talents. Consequently, the stunning "Someday We'll Know" received little attention in most countries. The band is widely considered a "one-hit-wonder".

I feel the music in you
It's encouraging, supportive.
It reaches out and puts a friendly
hand on your shoulder to comfort.
Have you ever been to a bus station,
park,coffee shop, where ever, and saw
someone whose shoulders are slightly
slumped and looking out a lonely window.
Then there's all the people who walk
right past that person. They might even
rudely bump into them.
Well this song is for those people.
It pushes back and protects.
It believes for you, when you can't
Your in harms way
I'm right behind
There's solace in sound

@@DomPeriod I remember sitting around a fire with my friends in late 2000 or early 2001, drinking and hanging out. We were all 17, 18, 19 years old. I looked around and said, "You know, we have all these problems with money and jobs and grades and relationship drama and the rest. But one day, we're going to look back on this as the good old days and wish we could go back."
They mostly just laughed, because our problems were oh so serious. But I was right. The years since have just gotten worse and worse. American society is sick. Poisoned, really, since it was deliberate. And, once my generation dies, no one will remember what it used to be like. The optimism and good feeling. The laughter and jokes and humorous takes that no one is 'allowed' to have anymore, because of woke Twitter lynch mobs and crybullies who want your life destroyed if you make them feel bad. Going more than two years without another ginned up batch of race riots, coincidentally always in the summer before elections. God, can you remember back before everyone was fat and diabetic?!
I loved my country, and I enlisted in the Army to protect her after 9/11. I felt compelled.
But now? I can't imagine feeling that way anymore. Everything is polluted with lies and hatred and insanity. Many openly wished us to die because they were mad about politics. Remember 'we'll support the troops when they frag their officers?' I do. I was one of those troops.
It's sad. But when I hear this old, good music, I can feel like I did before it all went wrong. I can forget that there was just a Congressional hearing about whether 12 year olds should be able to cut out their genitalia and pretend to be the opposite sex, or if they should be made to wait until they're the ripe and mature age of 16.
I can forget how much I've come to hate this culture. Though it does make me feel sorry for today's kids, who have known nothing else and think this shit is normal.

This was filmed at the Staten Island Mall. My friend Kenny is the guy at the beginning with the blue hat and eyebrow rings. I was delivering Snapple there the day this was being filmed. So many memories. Some things are still identical but the food court is completely relocated and now there’s stores in its place. That Cheesesteak place still exists in an updated form at the new food court. Sorry just wanted to drop some fun facts, all love ❤️
@lyndagies9774
My question is-- the kids sneering at the older adults---how old are they now and what are they doing? I'm so curious. PS--That's cool that you were there during the filming!
@axisofpeter
I've actually been there. Go figure. I stop to visit in-laws once a year while traveling north--and I've been there a grand total of once. Hmmm...will be up there again this summer. I may just have to visit the mall.
