Sugar Ray - Music for Cougars

Sugar Ray - Music for CougarsSugar Ray is best remembered for its mega-hit “Fly,” a slice of infectious pop-reggae that dominated the airwaves in the late ’90s. A decade later, singer Mark McGrath’s California band is back with more summery sounds. There’s nothing inventive about affable party songs like “Boardwalk,” “She’s Got the (Woo-Hoo)” and “Dance Like No One’s Watchin’.” And “Girls Were Made to Love” simply follows the commercial formula of “Fly.” But give Sugar Ray credit: they sure know how to market nostalgia.
