Harvey Danger are best known for "Flagpole Sitta" (you know it as the "I'm not sick but I'm not well" song, if the title doesn't jump out,) but to many diehards they are this generation's kings of power-pop. They played their final show ever last night at Seattle's Crocodile Cafe, and after "Flagpole Sitta" exclaimed, "I think we up on stage will take five seconds to appreciate the fact that we never, ever have to play that song again." Therefore, I owe it to the recently departed group to feature one of their lesser (read: barely at all) known gems, "Sad Sweetheart of the Rodeo".
