Misery (4:23)
118,550 plays (34,497 listeners)
“Misery” is a 1995 song performed by the Minneapolis rock band Soul Asylum. Although Let Your Dim Light Shine critically suffered in comparison to its predecessor, Grave Dancers Union, “Misery” managed to hit number 20 on The Billboard Hot 100 and number 1 on the US Modern Rock Tracks chart. The song also featured prominently in Kevin Smith’s 2006 movie Clerks II.
Some people have speculated that the song itself is referring to the fact that the record companies like to make “Misery” (aka alternative rock songs with dark lyrics). This theory states that Soul Asylum and its members are criticizing this idea. (In support of this idea, many people point out in the video, a CD manufacturer is shown making the “Misery” CD single.)

i know only three songs from this band: this one, runaway train, and summer of drugs (on victoria williams benefit). given that they're all stellar, maybe i need to look into them a bit more.
