"Co-Pilot" by Letters To Cleo

Letters To Cleo rose to fame in the mid-90s with their post-grunge pop rock sound. Featured on the soundtrack to Melrose Place, and their 1994 album, "Here & Now" reached #56 on the Top 100. Their next album yielded another chart appearance when "Awake" topped out at #88. "Awake" would mark this Boston band's final showing on the charts.

"Co-Pilot" comes from their 1997 effort, "Go!" and should have been the winning song that breathed a second wind into their sails. But I guess it just wasn't meant to be. Shortly thereafter, drummer Stacy Jones went on the front his own band, American Hi-Fi.

Singer Kay Hanley used to write a childhood pen-pal named Cleo, which is where the band got its name.
