    I agree with you wholeheartedly.

    I’m surprised this would be an unpopular opinion.

    John Popper is a harmonica virtuoso; Barenaked Ladies aren’t known for much musically outside their hits.

    I’ll add, John Popper is such a virtuoso that he would show up in weird places. Like, I remember listening to the Metallica cover of Tuesday’s Gone, and who shows up? John Popper! He does a great job. The cover wouldn’t be nearly to as good without him. He accompanies the entire song, it rules. Best part of the song.

    I don’t know if this is an unpopular opinion. It’s definitely out left field and I haven’t heard it before. I can’t even argue against it.

    The original singer of BNL left for mental health reasons, and imo the band never recovered.

    But also, I agree with you xD

    This post made me listen to Four. No post has ever made me listen to the Barenaked Ladies.

    After never hearing about Bliss Troubler and then randomly listening to two songs on YouTube (im a blue twobler expert now) I disagree, Barebacked Lady’s is the superior sound.

    Some mighty impressive harmonicoing by the Blurs Traveling singer tho
