Lost to Dylan in court, but song still rocks! Hootie and the Blowfish, "ONLY WANNA BE WITH YOU," meanemotion=natural, meanspeed=103.4 beats per minute

Only Wanna Be With You is a pop song released in 1995 by Hootie & the Blowfish, the third single from their breakthrough album Cracked Rear View. It peaked at #6 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in the United States, #3 on the Billboard Adult Contemporary chart, and #2 on the Billboard Mainstream Rock chart. It is most noted by its music video, which took the artistic form of an episode of ESPN SportsCenter. In addition to SportsCenter anchors Dan Patrick, Keith Olbermann, Mike Tirico, Charley Steiner and Chris Berman, several athletes were included. Among those appearing were golfer Fred Couples, basketball player Alonzo Mourning, and football player Dan Marino. The video was nominated in the Best Group Video category at the 1996 MTV Video Music Awards. Five lines from Bob Dylan's song "Idiot Wind" are quoted in the song, leading to a lawsuit. The song is at the speed of natural, the speed which we all found out last week coresponds to the universal, unisexual speed of sexual climactic pulses.
