The Breeders - Cannonball

'Cannonball' by The Breeders.

[KoriOlsen-oj]

Just went to their concert at the Paramount Theater in Seattle for their 30th Anniversary of the original concert. Man, they actually got BETTER with age! What an experience to share with my 11 year old who is OBSESSED with The Breeders.

Surely one of the greatest of the low key, under-appreciated early 90s outfits ever. The Deal sisters are lovable geniuses.

[robordm]

The song and the video are more 90s than the 90s. What a mad, great decade to live through.

[MurphMers]

It's 2023 and my 13 year old is preforming this at her school concert. Couldn't be more proud!

Sometimes performers and songs are born for eternity. I was lucky to be young in the 90s. The Breeders' music is immortal. Every time I hear this song, I am happy again for 3 minutes and 46 seconds. 🥰

One of the best bass intros in music. There might be nothing more 90s that this song. Perfect.

I’m glad I’m 44 and got to live through such a wealth of amazing bands during the 90’s ✌️

My God the 90s was such a good time for music. Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Metallica, Guns N Roses, Cypress Hill, Dr. Dre, NWA, Tribe Called Quest, and you still had the big bands of the 80s around. Plus even pop was fun with Deee-Lite and others. I miss it.

[somaliagullette]

I miss the 90s. This was part of my junior high soundtrack! 😎

[TheDukeEsquire]

What a great song and video. You never know how good an era is until it’s over. Hearing this and watching this in 2023 made me INCREDIBLY nostalgic. I hate to be one of those “the good old days” type of person, but yeah, those times were better. 😞

I lived in a gorgeous old apartment building in the Eastlake area of Seattle when this came out ($225 a month, thank you very much) and every time I hear it, my mind goes right on back to that living room. It really is like a time capsule…..

[ericcarterofthehillpeople]

I had such a crush on the Deal sisters when this video came out. Still do.

God I miss the 90's. I turned 20 in fun decade as far as I'm concerned

[bradleyferrier]

The best line ever written into a song.
"I'll be you're whatever you want, the bong in this reggae song"

Kim and Kelley Deal turned 63 this month (June 2024). 🫶

I'm 200 years old and still listening to The Breeders!

[Brankas]

First time I saw this was on MTV's "brand new", I was 6 yrs old, playing lego's on the floor, and the song immediatly got my attention. Oh boy I miss real MTV days!

[rickygrimez]

One of my favorite songs of all time. Yes that bassline, but the hook, the guitar riff, the drums, the catchy lyrical structure and just unhinged energy puts its stamp all over.

[TheSoundcrow]

Watching in 2024, this was one of my all time favourites! First heard this on an old MTV advert and always thought it was created for MTV but then saw the video and realised how cool the breeders were ❤️

[donnytucker]

I saw Nirvana in concert in November 1993 and the breeders opened up for them. It was awesome.
