Go Sailor - Long Distance

Here is a fabulous track from a band which consisted of elements of three of the United States' best music scenes in the late 1980s and early 1990s - Slumberland Records, the Berkeley punk scene centred around Gilman Street, and the rather unfortunately-named "cuddlecore" genre. They had everything going for them, really, and they didn't disappoint (except perhaps by breaking up too soon). If you don't like this song, you don't like indiepop!

That link nearly brought me to tears. Why? Why, when I cannot be there? Life is cruel...
