Goo Goo Dollsis an alternative rock band formed in 1985 in Buffalo, New York by guitarist/vocalist John Rzeznik and bassist/vocalist Robby Takac. They are perhaps most famous for the hit "Iris", featured on the soundtrack to the 1998 film City of Angels. Currently, the band consists of John Rzeznik (guitar, vocals), Robby Takac (vocals, bass) and Mike Malinin (drums). Early in their career, the Goo Goo Dolls were frequently dismissed by critics as mere imitators of the Replacements; however, the band refined and mainstreamed their sound enough to become one of the most popular adult alternative rock bands of the latter half of the '90s, selling millions of records to audiences largely unfamiliar with their inspirations. That's no knock on the band, either -- their music simply improved in craft and accessibility as the years progressed, and radio happened to be receptive to what a decade earlier would have been considered collegiate power pop.

Don’t Worry Lyrics
Goo Goo Dolls
I called you up all night til mornin,
Left my house by noon today, and I saw you standing there.
No one spoke, but we both listened.
Heard every word you didnt say.
And the sunshines all around us,
Smells like summers on the way, and I saw you standing there.
Tell the story of a lifetime,
Tomorrow brings a brand new day.
Dont worry bout today, and the words that you said.
Dont worry bout today, shake the world from your head.
At least for a while.
You see the day keeps getting longer,
But my nights seem longer still, and my tvs off the air.
Watching repeats on my ceiling,
Another hour left to kill.
