Biography

Counting Crows put in the gigging hours during the early days of the band, and it paid off. By the time they signed to Geffen in 1993, they had already built up a significant fanbase. Their debut, August and Everything After was released later the same year and became an unexpected multi-platinum hit, partly as a result of the successful single "Mr. Jones". Soon after, lead singer Adam Duritz… Read more in Amazon's Counting Crows Store

5.0 out of 5 stars The Single, Two Covers and a Video !!!, July 12, 2002
By 
This review is from: American Girls 1 (Audio CD)
By now, I hope everyone has heard American Girls somewhere, so you all know it is a great song. Even though the price is a little high on import singles this is well worth the purchase price. The Crows do an amazing job on the Teenage Fan Club song "Start Again" and an even better job on Sparklehorse's "Someday I will treat you good". To top it off, the Enhanced portion of the CD is the American Girls video and it is REALLY high quality. It is nice to see that bands are getting things right on the Enhanced parts of the disk.

Overall, if you are a counting crows fan, you need to have this single. If you are just getting into counting crows, I would make sure you own the studio releases first (August and Everything After, Recovering the Satellites, This Desert Life, Hard Candy). They are the most band for you buck.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not worth it, June 10, 2009
By 
This review is from: American Girls 1 (Audio CD)
I am a pretty dedicated Crows fan and I have all their CD's, but this one is one I wish I hadn't purchased. I bought a used one for less than $10 and it was a waste of $$. American Girls is a good song, but the other 2 songs were not good. Very repetitive lyrics- I listened to the CD 3 times (to give it a chance) and probably never will again.

5.0 out of 5 stars Two Extra Singles!, March 21, 2007
This review is from: American Girls 1 (Audio CD)
It's worth the money for this CD single for the b-side, "Start Again." Anyone who loves CC will almost certainly enjoy this track, which wasn't included on Hard Candy, but is very much in the same vein as the rest of the music on that CD.
