I remember this song really well. There was only one other person I knew who actually bought their album (we even went to see them live together... Wheatus opened for them! Remember those guys?! I guess Teenage Dirtbag went viral kind of recently) and this was my second favorite song. I haven't thought of them in years.
"Teenage Dirtbag" is still terrific, and if I'm not mistaken it was released as a radio single around the time Eve 6 was on the rise, so it tracks that they were touring together.
Lots of folks don't remember "Open Road Song" from the radio, as it was the third single from Eve 6's album and didn't chart particularly high, but I was a college radio DJ at the time so I played it regularly. Most folks didn't get past "Inside Out," though I'd argue "Open Road Song" and "Leech," the second single, were just as good.

I wrote about "Leech" as part of Mark Blankenship's "Lost Songs Project" last year: https://open.substack.com/pub/lostsongs/p/leech-eve-6-1998?r=92ygg&utm_medium=ios
