Sugarcube

Kaplan and Hubley wrote it. The single came out on August 4, 1997; the European 7-inch (Matador OLE 272-7) put "Sugarcube" on the A-side with "Busy With My Thoughts" (2:12) on the B-side, and Wikipedia lists no chart position. It also appeared on a Matador in-store play CD and on the compilation Virtually Alternative Vol. 81. No outside musician is credited on the track.

The video was directed by Phil Morrison, a friend and occasional roadie, from a concept developed with Joe Ventura of the Upright Citizens Brigade. It was shot over two days at Santa Monica College, with the band as a group sent to rock school after a lackluster performance. Live recordings exist from Cat's Cradle in Carrboro on June 27, 1997 and the Live Music Hall in Cologne on July 23, 1997, and the band played annual Hanukkah shows at Maxwell's in Hoboken. We found no statement from the band on the song.
