"You're An Ocean" by Fastball

Hailing from Austin, Texas, Fastball entered the major leagues with their second album, 1998's "All The Pain Money Can Buy." Buoyed by hits like "The Way" (#5), "Fire Escape" (#86), and "Out Of My Head" (#20), the album went platinum and remains their bestselling record to date. It reached #29 on the Billboard Top 200.

The band followed-up in 2000 with the record, "The Harsh Light Of Day." Despite the jubilant single, "You're An Ocean," the album did not reach the success of its predecessor, topping out at #97. The song features Billy Preston on piano and did not deserve to strike out - it didn't even crack the top 100.
