    STP's "Plush" always sounded exactly like PJ to me. And I'm sure it got pushed out there to cash in on PJ's success.

    When that video came out, I thought "wow, PJ's singer cut his hair reeeealy short!"

    LOL!

    P.S what made you come from NY to SYD?
    i wanted to study abroad but i wanted to go somewhere that spoke english. i figured england was a shorter plane ride than australia so i can go to england any time i wanted to later on in life and if i wanted to go to australia i'd have to go now. and i picked sydney because i'd get to do more stuff since it's a city and i thought it'd be the closest thing to ny to make me feel at ease :)

    Melbourne is more NYC! Come down to Mexico hehe! 8-)
    What you studying btw..?

    P.S Boo to Sydney, it's a Melbourne vs Sydney thing we hate each other but it's all in good fun :D

    there was a band called Nixon (or Dixon?) many many years ago that sounded exactly like pearl jam. so much so that i remember hearing one of their songs on the radio and thinking it was a new pearl jam song (and a rather shitty one at that).

    Is this the song and band you're thinking of? I have no idea why I remember this either, haha
