"No Rain" is a song by American rock band #BlindMelon. It was released in 1993 as the second single from the band's debut album Blind Melon. The song is well known for its accompanying music video, which features the "Bee Girl" character. The music video, directed by #SamuelBayer, received heavy airplay on #MTV at the time of its release. It subsequently helped propel Blind Melon to multi-#platinum level. The song is the band's highest-charting song.

Great day for #GenX! #MTV uploaded a ton of old Unplugged episodes to Paramount+. The collection includes sets by Nirvana, Mariah Carey, Eric Clapton, Pearl Jam, Paul McCartney, KISS, Alicia Keys, Alice in Chains, Neil Young, Oasis, and Rod Stewart.

Note that Paramount+ is a subscription service and apparently although the webpage makes it seem like they have all 12 season, there are a significant portion of episodes missing. Still, glad they are available.

"Cream" is a song by American singer-songwriter #Prince and his backing band #theNewPowerGeneration, released in September 1991 by #PaisleyPark and #Warner as the second single from Prince's 13th studio album, #DiamondsAndPearls (1991). In a 2004 #MTV special, Prince joked that he wrote the song while looking at himself in the mirror. #Cream became Prince's fifth and last number-one single on the US #Billboard #Hot100, staying at the top for two weeks.
