Title: 20 May 2010: its... 1995
Post by: RGMike on May 20, 2010, 07:44:22 AM
No FB hints so far; the promo I heard earlier said we're going to "a decade when we all had disposable income" -- so I guess that's either late '80s or late '90s?

ah, '95 -- Hiatt cries love, we cry WOS.

But that was before Clear Deep Blue Easy Something came along, right?

Isaak does a bad bad thing -- the orig before it was re-purposed for Eyes Wide Shut.

This Etheridge song has the same big riff as U2's "Hold Me Thrill Me," no?

Predictably, Melisseridge. Ho hum.  It was never a "Secret", sweetie.

Didn't need the whole Randy Newman song.  It's formula.

OMFG! uber-BOS2 Randy N from Toy Story. the sequel is one of the few films I'm looking forward to this summer -- what an underwhelming slate of CGI-crapfests coming between now and labor Day.

but it's a beloved film. And the song's the only bustout so far

ah, Weezer -- VHM, it's an AL/DM combotrina now.

I'll give Weezer the BOS nod.

Just dropped in to see what condition my BOS was in. Nice back to back pop hits with the Weezer & Wilco tunes. Too bad radio was hesitant to touch this song, thanks to the ill-chosen title.

BOS1 to John Hiatt.  One of my favorites.  BOS2 to Pulp.

VHM's to Melissa Etheridge and U2 solely for being underplayed songs by overplayed artists.  Seriously I don't think I've heard that Melissa song since it dropped off the pop charts.

WOS to Deep Blue Something.  Although I probably wouldn't mind it that much if it wasn't nearly as popular but it was soooooo overrated.  They actually have other songs that are quite good but 99.8% of people have never heard of them.

& I'm going to pull out the DHM for Dionne Farris.  That did not deserve to be #1 for 9 weeks, but at least it's still not overplayed on every Hot AC station like Deep Blue Something.

That Newman song is meh, but I'm giving it a free ride because that's another one I haven't heard in 15 years...in fact the only time I've ever heard it on the radio is on the Sunday Morning Fox Kids Club Countdown!  :o

Wow, that's an anniversary I haven't thought about in years. Mine is around now too--perhaps the 22nd?, but much earlier--about 28 years ago. I do remember I saw Asia at the Warfield on their first tour of the US that night. Kind of disappointing though. The only time I saw that band live.
