Pet Your Friends is the first album by the American alternative rock band Dishwalla. It was released in 1995 on A&M Records. The album included the hit single "Counting Blue Cars", which was a Top 40 favorite. The album's fourth single, "Charlie Brown's Parents", was popular at concerts, although it was not very successful in terms of sales. An acoustic version of "Counting Blue Cars" with an extended bridge was also popular on radio.
Katrina and the Waves is the third studio album by American/English new wave band Katrina and the Waves, released in March 1985 by Capitol Records. It was their first album on a major label, and a Top 30 hit in the US and the UK.
