No clues as of this writing. One might guess it's a '90s day, based on what we've heard so far this week.
ETA: and one would be correct!
-
It is -- nothing on fb but I heard a commercial for it last night.
-
requests I didn't get to make for '95:
Waterfalls (TLC)
You Gotta Be (Des’ree)
I Need You Around (Smokin Popes)
Time Bomb (Rancid)
Pouring Water on a Drowning man (Elvis C)
sounds like John Lee Hooker channeling Santana?
-
Despite being FRA this TOTHK bores the hell out of me, but not quite WOS territory. So I'll DHM it.
I'm mad she didn't take requests, because I would have been all over Real McCoy - Run Away.
-
Heather Nova song I haven't heard in forever. Worth a VHM.
-
WOS Heather Nova -- hindsight makes this sound like way too many other female solo records of the period.
"I want you to COME!!"
-
VHM Chris Isaak just as he was approaching his sell-by date.
-
BOS to Stockton's Chris Isaak and O.C's No Doubt
-
BOS No Doubt -- Ms Stefani when she seemed fresh. Too bad about her solo dreck.
-
WOS Heather Nova -- hindsight makes this sound like way too many other female solo records of the period.
"I want you to COME!!"
I can't remember that song at all... I have huge blind spots in 90s music, thank heavens.
Is she married to Aldo? and do they have a kid named Chevy?
-
practically an AL-trina in '95, but BOS2 Edwyn Collins -- easily one of my favorite 45s of the '90s.
-
Ooh, a big BOS for Edwin, err, what's-his-name. I'd never heard this until I heard it on RadioParadise a year ago.
-
I like this one, but forget who does it. This guy's voice reminds me of Richard Hawley, who was in Pulp.
-
That No Doubt song was perhaps my least favorite song of '95; I'm *slightly* more cool with it now, but still WOS on principle. That and it gets universally overplayed on just about every format these days.
BOS with reservations to Edwyn Collins, since I love this song but I don't know how much longer it can keep on narrowly dodging the burnout factor.
-
WOS2 Newt's Contract on America.
WOS3 another female clone of '95 -- Fiona Apple? they're all the same woman to me, sorry.

Lol, a female clone? This is Bjork.

Dude, it's Bjork. She's going all Bjork on us!
The Sugarcubes were some of the more interesting sounds I can recall coming out of my radio in the early 90s. HM to this, although I wouldn't go out of my way to download the bittorrent from some pirate music site -- ARAARRRGGGGH!

Bjork Sjucks. It's all whiny caterwauling to me.
-
Neil takes his mirror ball downtown. Or something.
-
HM to Neil's
whiny shiny caterwauling

Bjork Sjucks. It's all whiny caterwauling to me.
I'm not going to disagree about it being "Whiny caterwauling," or even "Bjork sucks," but calling her a clone just came across as surprising.
-
am I making myself (ever) clear? VHM.
-
BOS Santa Monica - Everclear
Good tune - wanted to hate it, but couldn't.
-

Some good R&R from Everclear. I like it.

hmm, this Thrash Alternative Thing this has shades of TMBG vocals filtered through Green Day while channeling some Limp182Bizkit or something.

Yah, a little Fountains of Wayne too. NTM.

NOFX. A big portion of my class was obsessed with them...and these are the kids that have since become hipsters ::)

hey, the Fountains (?) will be at Hardly Strictly Bluegrass this year.
-
Did I miss the No FX song entirely? BOS2 Ramones, even if they were on their last legs in '95.

it was fun, gotta say. But my general tendency is to shy away from this stuff. I equate it -- unfairly, I'll admit-- with stuff I occasionally hear on "Alternative" stations. Live 105 may dip into this territory occasionally, but my 18 year old nephew and his buddies all seem to dig this. And I'm like the old fogey going, "This is crap! You can't tell the songs apart! Oy!" But I don't really say that, b/c it's all relative (It's just pop music, after all) and we've all been there when someone complains about music. No fun in that. I say Live and Let Live! ... as long as I can veto your music when I'm feeling cranky! :)

I do remember that the Heather Nova tune was on some sort of "Best Of KFOG 1995" collection, and it also was a Rick Dees sureshot one week (although it never actually charted). She would reappear in 1998 with "London Rain". Both standard AAA fare from that time.
Still waiting for Better Than Ezra's "Rosealia" to appear in a '95 set, and the next time I'm aware it'll be that year, I will make sure to request it.
Would also request:
"Tomorrow", Silverchair
"Freak Like Me", Adina Howard
"Human Nature", Madonna
"In The House Of Stone And Light", Martin Page
