"There You Are" was the first single the Goo Goo Dolls ever released and their first music video, even though it came from Hold Me Up, their third album, out on Metal Blade in 1990. It was the only single the record produced. John Rzeznik, Robby Takac and George Tutuska wrote it together, and it's a fine snapshot of the trio in their scrappy college-rock days, all ragged guitars and heart-on-sleeve hollering.
The video keeps things close to home: the band plays at Pilot Field in their hometown of Buffalo, New York.
