Did I hear that right? 1999? We haven't even been to '98 yet, and we've only hit '97 once...

Still, I'll give her the benefit of the doubt, for a few songs anyway.

Jeez, I believe this is Loudon Wainwright III rappin' about Y2K! Annalisa's first Narada!

Holy crap! so much for the 10-year limit!  I'll be happy with anything that *wasn't* a KFOG staple, but I've got no expectations here.

was Dandy Warhols' "Bohemian Like You" from '99?

damn, it *is* LW3.  I'm guessing Rosalie may have played this on Acoustic Sunrise, tho'. She likes him.  That gets a BOS.

And Moby w/Gwen Stefani gets a WOS -- one of the most annoying records of the last 10 years.

yup.  ;)  In fairness, I just got incredibly sick of it -- this was one of KFOG's "we're trying to be younger and hipper" phases, and they just played this song to DEATH.

But Fatboy Slim, which I don't think KFOG played, is showing up. Weird. This is a Live 105 song, to me.

"Smooth" was end of '99/beginning of '00.

It's left field, but what I'd like to hear is Paula Cole's "I Believe in Love."  Or, hell, even Cher's "Believe" would be amusing.

A couple minutes ago the player said Tom Waits Hold On was next up, and now it says Old 97s Murder or a Heart Attack (ack-ack-ack-ack) is on deck.   I'd love to hear either--MoaH is a pretty catchy song.

ETA: OK, here's the Waits tune. BOS potential here.

Yep, that's the one. It was released in 98, but Lotus, the second single, charted in 99, on both the mainstream rock and modern rock charts. If that counts for anything.

Must be "(Da Le) Yaleo".  http://www.amazon.com/Supernatural-Santana/dp/B00000J7J4/ref=pd_sim_m_4

Featuring... nobody but Carlos.  Nice.  I take that back -- nice piano solo before his guitar solo.  One thing I hate about today's "download the single now as an MP3 or AAC file" culture -- no fucking liner notes, specifically for musician credits.

Goddamn lazy music companies (also Apple/Amazon) should embed that info in the file itself.  There's a place for notes, you know.

Great set!!

With the exception of LWIII (tacky) or Ben Harper (ZzZzZ), any of the songs could have gotten a BOS from me.  Y2K would have been a fine outro/interlude but it seemed like a terrible way to start a set, fortunately she more than made up for it with Moby/Gwen Stefani.  I know it was overplayed at the time but it never got old to me and ten years later it's good to see that it has its place in time! ;D  (It would have made such a good top of the hour cooker too.)

My next favorites (very close) are Sinead Lohan & Bruce Cockburn.
