He's building a juggernaut that's going to be very difficult to overcome. Or he's gonna have to really fuck this up in major way moving forward and I just don't see him doing that.
I generally gravitate towards deep cuts over hits, not really because of any other reason than I tend to like them more than hits, but if ILS would have been available I would have absolutely drafted it. It's easily one of my favorite 90's song, it's perfect. Never been a big fan of Plush though.

Def would have picked ILS. But over saturation for both of those songs means I don’t want to hear them much. Neither made my STP playlist I made a few years back.

ILS was picked third so it's not like it was overlooked. I strongly considered it, it's easily one of my favorite STP songs. But, I I actually like Silvergun Superman a bit more these days.

As far as Plush goes, I had no intention on ever drafting it.

I can guarantee Plush would not have made it past this current round.

Jeremy is first round talent, bub.

And for the record, I've never liked Plush all that much. Even when it was the only STP song that I'd heard, I was pretty luke warm on it. I like it a lot more now than I did back then. But still, it can't be denied that without that song we probably don't know who STP are. And that's huge.
