"Father Of Mine" by Everclear

Everclear enjoyed a surge in fame through the latter half of the 90s after their breakthrough single, "Santa Monica (Watch The World Die)," bowed at #29 in 1995. Led by singer/songwriter Art Alexakis, the band went on to score some other popular hits including "I Will Buy You A New Life" (#33) and "Wonderful" (their best charting performance, just missing the top 10 at #11 in 2000).

"Father Of Mine" is another well-known track by the band but should've performed much better. This melancholy cry out to a disconnected dad topped out at #46 in 1998, but remains one of the strongest efforts by the band - with a terrific video to boot.

The band reunited in 2015 to release a new record called "Black Is The New Black."
