Schadenfreude (1994)

EW's GRADE
B

Details Lead Performance: Ovis

Ovis Schadenfreude is a delightful piece of pop ear-candy—part Prince, part They Might Be Giants—from a veritable unknown who is getting some Top 40 airplay with ''Regular Thang.'' The lyrics of that potential breakthrough hit—'' I'm sorry if I broke your heart/Here's 50 bucks, go buy some glue''—are fun and typical. Take a listen, then brush your teeth.
