I heard this only a few weeks ago with just isolated vocals and no music. It was the first time it registered with me what the song was actually about. Incredible really, I underrated it.

I really loved Blind Melon - No Rain

I think it kept Ultravox off number one with their huge hit Vienna. Which sadly meant they never hit number one.

You should have a listen to ‘Change’ from them so, such a good tune!

It was huge loss when the singer did a Kurt Cobain, they were just hitting the big time.

I was a massive fan

Not sure of the musical knowledge or maybe you just missed the others songs by the artists that also charted but a lot of musicians/ bands above were not OHW (means One Hit Wonders for those seemingly unsure)

The album, 'Maybe you've been brainwashed too' that the single is from is pretty good. You should listen to it if you haven't already.

Plus the singer and main songwriter has written loads of songs for or with other artists since. He has a very recognisable style.

Don’t think it really counts because they both have multiple hits.

If we ever meet again by Timbaland and Katy Perry.

On repeat the last few weeks.
