The song featured those wonderful Grizzly Bear harmonies, fairly dynamic verse chorus changes and a cool vocal bridge that proceeds the song's kind of rocking climax. Even if a lot of dad rockers and their suburban wives fell in love with it, making it instantly suspect, "While You Wait For The Others" had enough power and soul underneath the accessible veneer to not only maintain respectability, but make it one of the best songs of the year. Oh, and Michael McDonald was recruited to redo the vocals as a b-side, which is one of those so wrong it is right moves. Kind of bizarre video/studio version here. Live version here. And what the hell, here is that Michael McDonald version as well.
