Hootie. Not even close.

Do you think he shakes his head and laughs at all the lame white dudes putting rap into 'country'?

which one includes the burger king commercial?

I love him as a solo country artist. He's old school and none of the new Nashville crap. His version of Wagon Wheel is one of my favorite songs.

ugh that version is the worst. He *******ized a great song.

Love Hootie though.

I like both. Think I like country version better

Hootie. I think they are very under rated as a 90s band. They weren't Nirvana, but they are a good pop band. One of the better ones of the 90s in my opinion.

Innocent is a great song in their later work. Hootie. I don't hate his country stuff though.

Doesn't matter. The Dolphins still make both of them cry.

Which Darius Rucker is best?

They sold over 20 million copies of cracked rear view, making it one of the 10 biggest selling albums of all time. How could they possibly be "very underrated"?

I watched their first appearance on Letterman and went to the Hastings in CS (when it was across from Blue Baker on Dominik) and bought their CD the next day. I couldn't remember their name so I told the guy behind the counter "it's a weird name" and he knew immediately who I meant.

Their debut album is truly remarkable. Just hit after hit after hit.

My vote would be for Hootie.

Beat me to it. This is like saying The Eagles were an underrated band from the 70's.

I do have to ask though.. In which genre would you categorize Hootie and the Blowfish?

---

Cracked rear view is definitely pop (minus Let Her Cry, which Darius will also say is country). But later albums you get into some really country and bluegrass-y type sound.

This is actually interesting to me. I'm not a huge Hootie fan but liked their songs in the day. I would say however they are not often thought of as a "great" band by a lot of people and maybe because in some circumstances they have become a butt of a joke. I don't think your comparison is all that accurate though. If you ask 100 people to name the top 5 or 10 bands from each decade you will get a lot of Eagles in the 70s but I don't think there would be a high percentage of Hootie answers for the 90s. JMO

Agreed. They were hugely successfully in a hurry and became a victim of their own success. All of a sudden it wasn't cool to like them anymore, and they suffered for it.
