YMMV / Harvey Danger

  • Awesome Music:
    • "Flagpole Sitta" is their most well-known song. The band is considered by many as a One-Hit Wonder.
    • Also, "Sad Sweetheart of the Rodeo" and most of Little By Little.
  • Covered Up: "Save it for Later".
    • Bomb the Music Industry!'s first album has a cover of "Pike St. - Park Slope" which has eclipsed Harvey Danger's original (from King James Version) in popularity.
  • Misaimed Fandom: Band members have reported that fans tell them "Flagpole Sitta" inspired them to get their tongues pierced, although tongue piercing is just thrown into the lyrics as the kind of trend chasing the narrator would like to do.
  • Refrain from Assuming: It's "Flagpole Sitta", not "I'm Not Sick, But I'm Not Well". Sean Nelson has mentioned that he wishes he had the foresight to give the song the incorrect name instead because this mistake is so common.
