Grapes of Wrath - "Good to See You"

Flipping through radio stations I stumbled upon and stopped on this song on CBC Radio1. I thought, "Wow, full circle – great sound. Must be coming back." Yet I was puzzled, because I couldn't picture someone in their early 20's writing a song with lyrics like this one ... lyrics about time going by in a way that I really identified with.

But when the song ended, the DJ credited Grapes of Wrath, an early 90's Canadian alternative band (that didn't get packaged and exported south like Barenaked Ladies did, but one that everyone north of the border knew about), and it all made sense.

Maybe the sound is coming back. It should. It's good.
