Get ready for a musical journey with the iconic Goo Goo Dolls! A legendary band’s intimate performance at the Tiny Desk Concert has everyone talking.
The Goo Goo Dolls, with their rich history spanning four decades, graced the NPR Music stage with an exclusive four-song set. But here’s the twist: it wasn’t just any ordinary concert. The band, formed in 1986, brought a special selection of hits, including their recently rediscovered gem, ‘Iris.’
Imagine the excitement as they kicked off with ‘Slide,’ a top-ten hit from their 1998 album, ‘Dizzy Up the Girl.’ The energy continued with ‘Feel the Silence’ from their 2006 album, ‘Let Love In,’ and the emotional ‘Not Goodbye (Close My Eyes)’ from the 2025 release, ‘Summer Anthem.’
And this is the part most people miss: the concert’s grand finale. The band saved the best for last with ‘Iris,’ a song that has stood the test of time. Written for the ‘City of Angels’ soundtrack, it experienced a resurgence after featuring in last year’s blockbuster, ‘Deadpool & Wolverine.’
So, what do you think? Is the Goo Goo Dolls’ Tiny Desk Concert a must-watch for music enthusiasts? Or is it just another intimate performance? Let’s discuss in the comments and share our thoughts on this iconic band’s latest venture!
