"Saturday night is when you sin"
I thought I was all special and everything, getting a copy of “1492,” the new Counting Crows single. Then I found out the Crows issued the single yesterday, as a free download on their Web site.
“1492” is the from the "Saturday Night" part of the album – a rocker unlike what I had come to expect from the Crows. Like everyone else back in the early ‘90s, I had a copy of August and Everything After, Counting Crows’ debut. The songs were a little poppy for my usual taste, but they were all right for when the girls came over. The huge hit “Mr. Jones” kind of set the bar for me as far as what I expected from the band: Catchy tunes, but mainly adult contemporary-type pop music. Once August ran its course, the Crows kind of went off my radar.
