BOS to Guster - I have the CD, though I haven't listened to it in a decade.

BOS2 to Travis, WDIAROM, which I never expected to hear on 10@10.

I'm drawing a blank on the third song.  Is this Travis?  No clue.

ETA: Guess I did have a clue after all.

VHM Travis, "Why Does it always Rain on Me?" Still not sure about what year this is -- late '90s tend to blur together.

didn't they play any actual *rock* music in 1999?

This set makes it feel like the singer songwriters on quaaluudes reigned.

I had to google to find out this "awake on my airplane" thing is Filter. KFOG certainly wasn't playing this in '99.

This one's not a keeper, that's fo' sho'. OTOH, we've avoided "Smooth". What we need is "Believe" by Cher.

uh-oh, Sting -- why would we wanna put ourselves thru all that again?

This is, BTW, only the 2nd 1999 set in the history of 10@10.

Well, here's your "Supernatural" track, but the much less-played one with Dave Matthews.  Sounds pretty good.

Whenever I hear Sting I think of the time when I first started dating my fiancee and she was lamenting that her mother really wanted to go see Sting and Annie Lennox at the Concord Pavilion.  GF did NOT want to take her Mom, but it's what mom really wanted for her birthday or something.. 

I told her, "don't worry, I'll win tickets for you."   And then I managed to call in to the KFOG Morning Show and win second row tix to the Sting concert!   holee crap!!!   When Renee asked me my name and contact info, I gave her my girlfriend's name and address (her name can be a guy's name, too).  She showed up, picked up the tix, and treated Mom to Sting and Annie from the second Row.  The best thing about this was I impressed the hell out of her mother even before we had met ... and the 2nd best ting was I didn't have to go to the concert myself.. ;)

Hey, Tink, I'm confused by "from the KFOG Morning show".  Did this happen to you, or are you reporting something that happened to someone else and was archived on the morning show page?  I'm cornfused.

I liked it.  It moved from droozly wimpy to wall-of-sound awesome!

Damn, I would have been all over that.  I love that song.  Surprising no one recognized it, it hit #12 on the Hot 100 (& is one of the runners up on my personal Top 100 at that position).

The guy behind Filter is Richard Patrick, the brother of the actor Robert Patrick, who was the evil shape-shifting robot in T2, as well as the guy who replaced Fox Mulder as the X-Files limped to its conclusion.  Anyone with kids of a certain age will also know him as the father in Bridge to Terabithia.

Richard was also in Nine Inch Nails back when that was more than one person.

I used to have a great trivia question about Robert Patrick, back before Planet Hollywood went bankrupt:   Who is the only actor (with spoken lines, not just a stunt man) to have been killed on screen by all three founders of Planet Hollywood: Schwarzenneger, Willis & Stallone?

BOS's to Moby and Sting, even though the Moby one being the epitome of the intersection of 'mainstream' and 'chill' is still overplayed.

VHM to Santana/Dave Matthews, the single from that album that Hits 106 played but didn't seem to get anywhere else.

WOS to Filter.  I actually loved that song (though the pop radio mix, I think it was called the H&H Mix is much better than the album version which is the one that most stations play anymore, including what we heard today) until I found out that it was about him running around naked on an airplane...wtf.

South Side (Which AL played in the last '99 set!) is, in my opinion, one of the most brilliant songs ever recorded.

1999 is the year I started keeping personal charts.  Looking back at them, I see a bunch of songs that would have sounded good in this set: (I agree with Mike that she should have played "Believe" by Cher too)

Len - Steal My Sunshine
The New Radicals - Someday We'll Know (their, er, his other song)
Orgy - Blue Monday
Lit - My Own Worst Enemy
Rufus Wainwright - Instant Pleasure
Bree Sharp - David Duchovny
Garth Brooks in the Life of Chris Gaines - Right Now
Eminem - My Name Is (Though I doubt she'd play this one.)

Their peaks on my personal chart:

Someday We'll Know 20
My Own Worst Enemy 35

Those are all that charted.
