If you lived through the late ’90s, you probably remember the poppy post-grunge band Lit, purveyors of “My Own Worst Enemy” and its gargantuan octave riff. That riff is right up there with “Machinehead” and “1979” when it comes to songs that were on MTV in my adolescence. Apparently it’s now an NHL anthem? That status has assuredly contributed to its continued popularity on streaming platforms — the song has tallied more than 500 million plays on Spotify alone — which leads us to today’s news.
