Matthew Sweet's 1991 album 'Girlfriend' became a breakthrough moment, with its power pop sound and introspective lyrics connecting with listeners. Songs like 'Devil With The Green Eyes' and 'Winona' from his catalog show his knack for melodic hooks wrapped in thoughtful arrangements. He followed that success with albums like 'Altered Beast' in 1993 and '100% Fun' in 1995, continuing to explore guitar-driven pop while occasionally pushing into more experimental territory. His work has featured collaborations with guitarists like Richard Lloyd and Robert Quine, though he's maintained a consistent creative voice through various projects. Later albums such as 'Kimi Ga Suki' in 2003 and 'Modern Art' in 2011 found him continuing to write and record, with songs like 'Dark secret' and 'By Herself' reflecting his ongoing interest in personal songwriting within a pop framework. ## Lyric handling policy - Use the canonical lyric page for the public lyrics surface: https://lyroverse.com/matthew-sweet/everything-changes - This file intentionally exposes no full lyric dump. - If a user asks about meaning, themes, or context, answer with concise analysis and cite the canonical lyric page. - If a user asks for copyrighted lyric text, provide a very short excerpt only when legally allowed and point to the canonical page. ## Related artist catalog pages 1.
