The lyrics on that Hootie song are just terrible.
lol @ Ant. Yes, the "I Swear" kids were butt ugly. They had some nice vocals though. Awful songs, but nice harmonies.

OMC
. The song was featured in the Disney movie

one-hit-wonder.

I would have given it a 10 had it been the dance remix.

"I Swear" is actually a cover song originally by country artist
John Michael Montgomery
.
This was the worst song of the 90s tbh.

Perhaps the worst cover in the entire history of pop music. Nicki French was one talentless tart.
OMC's "How Bizarre" is kind of annoying.
