The Christian alternative band from Texas took there name from the book “Mere Christianity” by C.S. Lewis. This song, which was a worldwide success peaked at #2 here, but it also spent 16 weeks in the Top 10 and 35 weeks on the chart. By the end of 1999, Billboard ranked the song the 6th best selling single of the year, ahead of several songs that reached #1. This song was used in the TV show Dawson’s Creek (in fact it was featured on the TV Soundtrack), it was the main theme song of the movie She’s All That. It was also used on the movie How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days. Sixpense's version of The La’s “There She Goes” (#265 on this list) made it to #32, exactly 6 months after this hit – a little larger gap and they wouldn't have qualify under these rules to be in the countdown.

One of my favorite OHW songs. Used to listen to lead singer Leigh Nash's collabs with Delerium quite a bit too.
