Rock and Television: The Tube Top 40
Erik Himmelsbach, Request, November 1999
DAWSON HAS Joey on a boat, and theyre passionately kissing. Adolescent hormones are quietly raging, and Dawson makes it clear he wants to, um, get to the next base. As the smooching continues, P.J. Olssons melancholy ballad Ready for a Fall wafts in the background. Not a good sign the music tells us Dawson is going to strike out. No one is happier at our heros bad fortune than Olsson. "Dawson was hoping to get laid that night," the singer/songwriter says. "Hes not getting any, and my song was playing. I thought it was really cool placement."
