Song of the Day: Heavy

Heavy by Collective Soul. Released in January of 1999 as the 2nd single to the band’s 4th studio album, Dosage. Collective Soul had quite a few hits throughout the 90’s but you could say that Heavy was their last. It was the last of the band’s seven number 1 US Rock Billboard hits and the last song by the band to chart on the Billboard 100. The song itself features a very heavy rock riff, I wonder if that’s where the title came from, but my favorite part of this song has to be the chorus. The chorus to this song is just so so good. My only issue is that this song isn’t long enough, coming in at 2:54, it easily could’ve used another minute.
