Transcription

Reception

"Just Like Anyone" peaked at number 52 in the United Kingdom and number 55 in Canada, where it also reached number 12 on the Alternative chart.[3][4][5] In the United States, the song was not released as a commercial single, but it received enough radio airplay to peak at number 11 on the Billboard Album Rock Tracks chart and number 19 on the Modern Rock Tracks chart.[6][7]

The New York Times music critic, Jon Pareles, said the song's lyrics "could have been written for the insecure high school students in the television drama My So-Called Life," in which Danes also starred.[8]

Music video

A music video for the song was filmed in Los Angeles during summer 1995. Directed by P.J. Hogan and produced by Michelle Alexander, the video features the actress Claire Danes, who plays a high school student who is rejected and taunted by other students because she has two noticeable bumps on her back. Hidden beneath the bumps are angel wings, which are revealed later as she takes flight during a school dance.[9] The video was shown on MTV and MuchMusic, reaching the most-played charts on both networks.[10]
