Ben Kweller(born June 16, 1981) is an American rockmusician and former lead singer of the 1990s band Radish, which was compared to Nirvanain Rolling Stone Magazine. The band grew in popularity in the Dallas, Texas music scene from its formation in 1993. However, the band was dismissed by critics as little more than an imitation of Nirvana with the novelty of an extremely young lead vocal-guitarist (Kweller was in his teens for the entire existence of the band). Nonetheless, Kweller and his two bandmates, bassist Bryan Blur and drummer John Kent, were signed to a major record label in 1995 by Mercury Records. Regardless of a much-hyped beginning, which included appearances on Conan O'Brien and David Letterman, Radish failed to strike big success with either its first record Dizzy or its sophomore effort Restraining Bolt.

Ben Kweller
Verse 1:
Go!,
tack gaint mushrooms,
to all of the bedrooms.
go yo, to the streets,
impedence with selection,
I survey nocturnal thought,
as we drive home.
Chorus:
hey, she won,
do do do, da do do do,
hey, she won,
do do do, da do do do,
Verse 2:
you're just a vacuum tube down in the basement,
thats of course the game I'm playin,
while my heart goes to the almighty,
solidize my internal thought,
as we drive home.
Chorus/Outro:
hey, she won,
do do do, da do do do,
hey, she won,
do do do, da do do do,
you're no fun,
do do do, da do do do,
since you won,
do do do, da do do do
