I still do not think "Hey Jealousy" is as good as "Found Out About You" which could be the best song of the nineties. There's this coda between the guitar playing and those highly depressing, damaged-romantic lyrics by Doug Hopkins that you can't help but pay attention too. The way those jangly chords kinda fade-in and out like a bad dream. It's very mysterious sounding even if it's a top Billboard alt hit or whatever.
Even besides the mythology of him killing himself, there is most definitely some great songwriting talent there. All of the lyrics are very biting and personal and it has an effect on you when you listen. Even way afterwards, when he was kicked out and just living in Arizona or whatever, it seemed like they were sorta trying to write songs in his vein? Because they were a popular nineties machine band and trying to be rock stars and stuff. It's a pretty deep story.
The most I hear about this band in this current decade is when they appear on the Train Guys podcast and I think one of the members said "we want to reach the commercial popularity of Nickelback" or something in an interview. They dug their own grave.

Hey Jealousy was a great song, and Found Out About You is a very GOOD song.
I think everything they released after that album was awful and very graspingly "VH1" oriented. I think they are probably a classic case of a band that went to hell after the founding visionary/genius died, and the other members carried on unadvisedly.
that Nickelback comment seems to confirm this.

It really might have been the best rock song of the 90s, but there a lot of competition for that title.
A really remarkable thing about the song is how upbeat it is about despair.

One Headlight
Also by Wallflowers but lesser known - Closer to You. But that was 2002.
The CR rock song from the 90's was Bush - Glycerine.
