The first time I heard Sunny Day Real Estate was on the Batman Forever soundtrack (see: Soundtracks That Are Way, Way Better Than the Movie, Vol. 1). I'm sure I'm not alone in thinking that the band was fronted by a woman on first listen, I mean, Jeremy Enigk has one of the most androgynous voices in the history of recorded music since Tracy Chapman. Also Brian Molko (sorry Anna).Anyway, I can't think of a better band to feature on Shark Jumping than a band who's whole car... MORE

I guess it depends on your taste. This is a MAJOR plug for a great little website that some of you may know about - lala.com You trade CDs you don't want w/ CDs you DO want. Get rid of all the crap you don't listen to and get something you really want. I have a lot of crap I don't listen to anymore so it's a good trade off. The catch? It costs you a buck per CD you get. Trade one, you get one. You DON'T get to pick what you're shipped. Make a list of stuff you RE... MORE

The page looks a little empty without this. I'm trying to get a foothold on my eclectic musical tastes once again. Here I am.

I never saw this one before. I can not believe that I grew up with such an awesome band. I can remember sitting in my bedroom ten years ago listening to them! I want to thank Keith Goodwin from Days Away (being this little 14 year old boy) for getting me in to them.

It's been a long day, full of "oh my gosh I'm never going to finish this paper" to meltdowns over jumpdrives to feeling totally at peace in front of my computer, with my baby girl kitty Marlowe keeping my company. Some SDRE soothes my soul. I should mention that my eclectic collection of digital music comes largely from the hubby's compy (which he just put on an external drive for me. I'm a social scientist, so anything techy is too much for me). Anyway, there's this band ... MORE

For the longest time I thought Sunny Day Real Estate was how rock music was supposed to sound. I patterned my early songwriting off of what I felt was their intent. This band, along with Smashing Pumpkins, are one of the very few that I can say I was ever drunk on. I ate up every note of everything that the did. So what happened to them? Personal take, they stopped rocking. I don't want to sound like a Jack Black wannabe here, but if you start out rocking you kind ... MORE

i was 18, working at a large electronics store chain. a co-worker of mine pulled me aside and told me that he had an album for me to hear. the cover depicted a couple of those figures for little kids with no arms or legs - you know, the ones that are cylindrical, a solid color, and are generally bald or have a curly q painted on the top of their heads. no words, front or back, except for the spine that read 'sunny day real estate diary' in the old fashioned type wri...

I recommend this song to everyone. If you don't have it, find a way to get it. SDRE's best song (arguably) and also one of the best album covers, I have a 3ft x 6ft poster of it on my wall.

Sunny Day Real Estate I have honestly been listening to these guys since I was 12. My older sister (explained two posts ago) had a subscription to CMJ Monthly (a magazine that came with a CD of supposedly up-and-coming music). The November 1998 issue had their song "Pillars" on it. I promptly stole that disc from her and I don't think I have ever returned it. I played it non-stop for what seems like all of the 7th grade. I honestly didn't even bother to venture out i... MORE
