No clues on FB; clearly we're due for '90s today. And since Atlantic2NG is doing Aug 1971 on their retro-chart today, I'll think twice before going with AL.

I joined you there. '94's a bore.

some punky thing started out, then Pretenders "Night in My Veins" (from "Isle of View?")

with snores galore. I'm in the "week of 8/1/11" thread, swooning over that Diana Ross rarity they just played.

Eagles "Get Over It"
favorite line: "I’d like to find your inner child and kick it’s little ass"
-

"Isle of View" was their live CD, no? "Night" was orig a studio track, methinks. I'll catch up with this tonight if its sounds at all interesting from the comments... but I'm skeptical.
-
Eagles "Get Over It"
what would be brave and interesting would be to follow that with something from that country Eagles-covers CD. (yeah, like THAT could happen!)

TOTHK tune #1 was Green Day's Welcome to Paradise. Nice to hear.
Chrissy says that she's not a slut, it's just the might in her veins, bitches.
crime clips include Lorena Bobbitt getting off by reason of insanity. oh snip snap!
what is this Don Henley thing? is it called Get Over It? no thanks, I'll continue to unlike.

That's why I'm guessing, it wasn't the version I'm used to, even though I have "Isle of View."

BOS, TOTHK Green Day.

I must be wrong, it isn't listed there. Anyone else identify which album?

VHM Clapton, "I'm Tore Down". Back to the blues...

Clapton "I'm Tore Down" from the blues album

It just sounded different. I guess I'm slipping. (slipped?)
-
Gah, Hootie? Nooooo!
-
Gah, Hootie? Nooooo!
I'm kinda surprised they haven't been showing up in the regular rotation -- I'd think that'd hit the soccer-mom sweet-spot. ;)

Just like Sonic Youth?

Whoa, from Hootie to Sonic Youth's cover of Superstar?
Shuffle Shock

Gah! And then from Sonic Youth to DMB? Why must you mock us, Annalisa?!

good one, I think I'll add it to my vocab!
-

a bunch of us requested Shonen Knife's "Top of the World" from that Carpenters tribute last time we did '94 but AL didn't bite.
-
Finally a song I can really give a BOS vote to. Elastica "Connection", although I probably should have given one to Mazzy Star.
-
perusing the FB comments -- another wildly divisive '90s set. Some just looooove DMB , others want to slit their wrists.

We played Knife's version of "Top of the World" for my wife's segment of the now ubiquitous (and overly long) wedding reception slideshow of her photos from baby to all growned up. I think we also used it for our son's preschool end-of-the-year slideshow.
(Yay, Elastica.)

Yeah, Sonic Youth was like nails on a blackboard to me, while I'm sure others were saying: "cool! this is really great!"
-
Sidenote re: wedding slideshows - I don't know if you've been to any weddings lately, but thank god we had an editor that made us cull through photos until we had no more than 36 photos for each of us, and then 36 "together". 3 songs and we were done. I've sat through slideshows with 100s of photos that either flashed by too quickly for you to register who/what was in them OR ran so long that people were leaving for bathroom/drink breaks. I blame Steve Jobs and Ken Burns. :-}

I thought it was a nice palate cleanser after Hootie.

so what Geoff is saying is that their guitars don't sound so sweet or clear? ;D
I agree w Darryl, nice palate cleanser.. er, scrubber.

"get off my lawn!" dig duly accepted with humor. Let me add that it's not so much a palate cleanser as a vomiting agent to purge the Hootie! And no, I like plenty of loud distorted guitar licks. I think the tones in the song were designed to irritate old people like me!

AL posted that Mazzy Star won BOS and Richard Sands (former Live 105 PD) said "as played originally on Live 105!" LOL!
So I replied "@Richard: it has been noted here a number of times that many of the great songs we hear in '90s-centric 10@10s were 'Live 105 only' tracks. You guys really kicked butt back then. Thanks for the memories!"
8/4/11- Thursday! Welcome to...1994!!
1. Green Day- Welcome to Paradise
2. The Pretenders- Night In My Veins
(NEWS:OJ Simpson/Susan Smith/Lorena Bobbitt)
3. The Eagles- Get Over It
4. Eric Clapton- I'm Tore Down
(MOVIE: Pulp Fiction)
5. Urge Overkill- Girl, You'll Be A Woman Soon
6. Mazzy Star- Fade Into You (BOS!)
7. Hootie & The Blowfish- Time
(NEWS: Jackie O has died)
8. Sonic Youth- Supertstar
(TV: The Simpsons)
9. Dave Matthews Band- Ants Marching
10. Elastica- Connection
Talk about a mixed bag -- the Sonic Youth was the only bustout, afaik, and (especially now) the DMB was painfully unnecessary.

Noooooooo....NOBODY likes Hootie anymore. Not even the soccer moms. There's a reason why they haven't been played anywhere for the past 17 years. ;) (Which is, consequently, the only thing that prevents me from WOS'ing it.)
-
Not spectacular but could have been much worse.
BOS Sonic Youth.
Sadly, Elastica and Urge Overkill have become Katrinas.
I'm also sadly going to have to deem Mazzy Star most unnecessary. Other than it sounding different I'm not terribly thrilled with much about it, & I hear it too much on Live and Alice and probably KFOG now too. (It's one of the songs that alt./AAA stations specifically play just so they can say they're 'different.' Just like the rest of the stations.)
DMB was good back then; can't get too worked up over "Ants Marching." IMO they didn't officially start to suck until "Stand Up." ("Everyday" wasn't great, though.)
Hootie > Sonic Youth > DMB does indeed sound like KFOG these days.
I'm glad we got "Welcome to Paradise" instead of "When I Come Around" & "Night in My Veins" instead of "I'll Stand by You."
I won't complain about not hearing "Return to Innocence" by Enigma because we're getting that in regular programming now. :) (Along with "Sadeness Pt. I!")
I will, however, still complain about not hearing Real McCoy. Maybe in 3 weeks.
