To many, Sloan is one of today's quintessential Canadian bands, as cliche as it might sound. Since their debut EP Peppermintin 1992, the fab four - Halifax natives, now relocated to Toronto - have forged a distinct niche for themselves in the Canadian scene. The outfit includes Jay Ferguson and Patrick Pentland on guitar, Chris Murphy on bass, and Andrew Scott on drums; each have their own unique songwriting voice and style, each contribute equally. Sloan's humble beginnings with the aforementioned EP led them to a signing with David Geffen, where they released Smearedthat same year. Following that album and hailed as "Canada's Nirvana," they took a sharp turn with Twice Removed(1994) and never looked back.

Raspberry Lyrics

Sloan

Look through the music
There's a dancing girl
She can be broken
In your hands
She knows you're looking at her
But that's what scares her
You're in the space
That she commands
If she still likes you
You might get a call
She'll ask you why
You stood and stared
You will be hearing from her
But that should scare you
If she still likes you
Be prepared
Pardon me for calling
But I'm just checking in
You don't know who I am
But I know where you've been
You sit and tap your fingers
When you should tap your phone
Tap all your resources
Until she leaves you alone
She leaves you alone
The girl's got nothing on you
But that's what bugs you
'Cause you still let her get to you
Pardon me for calling
But I'm just checking in
You don't know who I am
But I know where you've been
You sit and tap your fingers
When you should tap your phone
Tap all your resources
Until she leaves you alone
She leaves you alone
