Has anyone bought this cd by Chrome dreams - its the one with small inteviews with the band and biography? Anyway, it usually sells for like £7.99 and i found it in the cd section of a £1 shop!! where all the products cost a pound! but wait it didnt actually cost £1, it was on half price for 50 pence!!! U know it's kinda funny i got it this cheap, but then it makes me think 'show how much people like goo in the uk'. but then again it's not actually their album, it's like an unofficial thing. When i listened to it, John says a funny thing, he say that he's gona get a t-shirt made saying ' i got nominated for 3 grammys but left with this lousy t-shirt'...lol. Obviously this is about iris, i think losing out to celine's my heart will go on for the grammy - i'm not totally sure. But other grammy's were their songs nominated for.. was one of them black balloon... as a goo fan i should know this and i cant believe i dont . Thanks p.s they should have won the grammy!!!

We realized that we had a rapport among us and in that rapport was power. "And we realized that our day jobs (as the Goo Goo Dolls) didn't suck as bad as we had thought," he said, laughing (Robby).

| Black Balloon was nominated for Best Rock Performance By A Duo Or Group With Vocal for 2000. I think Santana beat them out on that one. I seem to remember a John quote from somewhere about Celine Dion's song winning over Iris. Something along the lines of "That cow stole my grammy."

Thanks, that so humourous what john said about celine... my brother's got all her cd's lol. So after iris and black balloon, what was the other song nominated? and what film was black balloon in - was it here on earth with josh hartnett- i think it was played at the beginning.

i believe that Black Balloon is the last song that has been nominated for a Grammy. . .and it was in the movie you are talking about. . .here's my favorite thing Goo have said about Celin Dion, it's taken from the MTV new year thing. . . Norris: Uh, the Sex Maggot question is the one that Thalia just asked. She wants you guys to 'fess up as your confession for 2000. Why the name change way back then? John: Cuz that was the stupidest thing I've ever heard in my life. Robby: I confess that we drank too much back then. John: It's stupid. Norris: Is that it? John: Can we make a confession? Norris: Sure any confessions you need to make, to get off your chest, we're here for that. John: One of us, one of us in our band, and I feel guilty about it, was driving on the highway next to Celine Dion's bus. Norris: Ah, yeah. John: And um, somebody in our band, (sadly)pulled down his pants and pressed his ass against the window. Norris: Wow, wow. And was there a reaction from Celine's crew? John: (quickly) No. Norris: Really? John: (quickly) No, no reaction. None. Norris: And we're not gonna know which one of you did this? John: No. Robby: There was no reaction. Norris: I think Celine is in Montreal doing a big show tonight, you could give her a communal moon if you want. *John acts like he is going to pull his pants down* Norris: No, no! it's much funnier when you see it cuz rzeznik seems sincerely sad. . .whether or not this is true, that's another story. . .
