The tune was one of a number of songs the group delivered – alongside “Geek Stink Breath”, "Brain Stew/Jaded" and "Walking Contradiction" – while at the UK broadcast outlet to promote their fourth album, “Insomniac.”
Coming on the heels of the success of their major label debut, “Dookie”, the project reached No. 2on the US Billboard 200 on its way to sales of more than 2 million copies in the region.
Due December 10, “BBC Sessions” presents 16-tracks from four of the band's appearances at the BBC's legendary Maida Vale Studios from 1994, 1996, 1998, and 2001.
