"Good Time Coming" by Something Happens

Something Happens was an alternative rock band from Dublin that never got the airplay they deserved in the US in the late 80s and early 90s. Sounding a lot like R.E.M. and Toad the Wet Sprocket, the band blended catchy music with thoughtful lyrics. But college rock had a tough time competing with the hairband and power ballad craze popular at the time.

In 1990, they released their sophomore record, "Stuck Together With God's Glue." Critics loved it, but it failed to make an impression. Even strong cuts like "Good Time Coming" could not help this band get their head above the crowd.
