I was still in my grade school when this song came out. My brother used to have the Dookie album then I hear their old songs, and they sounded good. My favorite song from Dookie is this song When I Come Around. I often see the video on MTV and Channel V then. Those are the days of great music, and when MTV is still a thing.
When I Come Around didn't chart in Billboard Hot 100 because it was not commercially released. However,it was a hit in Billboard Mainstream Top 40 reaching number 2, and number 1 in Billboard Alternative Songs. In UK, it peaked at number 27, while it reached number 2 UK Rock Charts.
