Two Princes

A real tune today that's been bouncing around my head, digging back to the early 90's with the Spin Doctors and their hit record 'Two Princes'.

The Spin Doctors are an American alternative rock band who formed in New York. They are best known for this song which came from the album 'Pocket Full Of Kryptonite'.


The song reached number 2 in the U.K chart


This song, in my opinion, is one of those that once heard, whether on the radio or when your Ipod shuffles, can brighten the most miserable of days.


The distinctive drums and percussion at the beginning slaps a smile on my face which lasts the rest of the day.


Did you know...

  • 'Pocket Full of Kryptonie' was almost completely ignored commercially until vast numbers of grass routes fans propelled them into the mainstream.
  • The Spin Doctors then played their first festival on tour in 1992 at H.O.R.D.E and have since gone on to play huge music festivals such as Woodstock 1994 and the Glastonbury festival.
  • The Spin Doctors made an appearance on Sesame Street, singing a modified version of "Two Princes" that emphasized the importance of sharing.
