I suspect it will be quite a dull affair, but I asked for Blondie, Cher, and Britney Spears nonetheless.
oh and also "David Duchovny (Why Won't You Love Me?)"

Potential '99 Katrinas:
Moby, "Porcelain" and "Southside"
Old 97s: "Murder or a Heart Attack"
Fatboy Slim, "Praise You"
Filter "Take a Picture"
Guster "Barrel of a Gun"
Blur "Coffee & TV"
all have appeared at least twice, and we've only visited 1999 five times.

eeek: someone posted a list that included Jewel, Korn, and Limp Bizkit. Shoot me if we hear any of 'em.

Kill me first if we hear "Smooth".
I'd prefer to hear "Tender" over "Coffee & TV" anyday. I saw Blur perform this with the Harlem Boys & Girls Choir at the Roseland in NYC the same year Moving stuff.

My 1999 Wishlist:
Orgy - Blue Monday
The New Radicals - Someday We'll Know
Fleming & John - Ugly Girl
Juvenile - Back That Thang Up
Khaleel - No Mercy
Mousse T vs. Hot N Juicy - Horny
Oleander - I Walk Alone
Faithless - God is a DJ
PM Dawn - I Had No Right
Tommy Henriksen - I See the Sun
Fuel - Shimmer
+1's to Lou Bega, Cher, Limp Bizkit (yes, I enjoy "Nookie" - took awhile though), and Blondie
OTOH, the set is probably going to sound something like:
Train - Meet Virginia
The New Radicals - You Get What You Give
Shawn Mullins - Shimmer
Pearl Jam - Last Kiss
Goo Go Dolls - Black Balloon
Len - Steal My Sunshine
Cake - Never There
Moby - Porcelain
Sheryl Crow - Sweet Child O Mine

Dayum indeed -- I was thinking the same thing, but them I'm OLD. ;)

Webster just said "Ass-a-lisa". heh.
-
Well, at least it's not "Smooth". Will AL seg from "Maria Maria" to "Maria" by Blondie?
-
my students know this song, not a good sign!
;)
They knew it was Santana, but didn't know the singer.
-

That would be pretty awesome, actually!
-
WOS G.Love feat Jack Johnson (or is it the other way around?) Either way -- yeesh. Horrendous.
-
Well, at least it's not "Smooth". Will AL seg from "Maria Maria" to "Maria" by Blondie?
This song combines several annoying things:
- vocal histrionics akin to what you hear all over American Idol, Christina Aguilera, etc.;
- Gypsy-tinged guitar work (I can't tell you how I grew to hate the Gypsy Kings, and I blame one errant evening spent at the Steps Of Rome cafe in North Beach. What an annoying place.)
- self-reflexive vocals (Carlos' name is dropped by this rapper)....
...but maybe ALL that's topped by the rapper introducing Jack Johnson.
Actually, I've grown less hostile to Jack Johnson. I guess it comes with getting older .... and sleepier?

Epic segue fail. Should've played Blondie instead of boring ass Jack.

I still don't know the singer

pretty bad cover. Great song in it's own morbid sort of teenage way
-
Maybe Cher could be after this PJ tune?
Damn, I guess not. :-\

instant katrina: "Burn to Shine" making it's 3rd (4th?) appearance in 6 '99 sets.

I hear two singers: one with a higher crooner voice and another straight rapper, who mentions "aw, yah... Carlos Santana with The Refugee Gang and Wyclef (Jean?)."

Southside?? Are you fucking kidding me?

VHM Ben Harper
yes, it sounds good today.

Sting for me, old as I am, puts me to sleep.
reminds me of a Steven Wright joke, sort of:
"When Jack Johnson listens to Sting, he goes back in time."
(the real joke is "I put instant coffee in the microwave and almost went back in time.")

BOS "Mambo #5" -- anything to relieve the boredom.

This set has gone from bad to worse! Still holding out for Cher...

Lou Bega -- at least it was a pop hit, unlike these KFOG-playlist Katrinas.

+1's to Lou Bega, Cher, Limp Bizkit (yes, I enjoy "Nookie" - took awhile though), and Blondie
I would've plus one'd Khaleel (haven't heard that since 1999 - at first I thought it was Martin Page), Orgy, and Fleming & John.
"Nookie" is ok if played once in a blue moon (and let's not kid ourselves, would've been very welcome today).
And I should've minus one'd "Last Kiss".
-
Regrettably, Radical's prediction isn't far off.
Even Train would be a step up right now. (OMG did I really type that?)
-
Dayum, this set needs some Viagra...
Maybe AL has been replaced by a cyborg or something? This doesn't sound anything like she'd compile.
-
spot on identifying a katrina storm, RGMike...
Take A Picture -- like the song, but we heard it maybe 6 weeks ago?
-

one of the few foo fighters songs that does not completely make me want to go postal - but i still want to punch dave grohl.
but too many trips on kfog with this song. please something else. please please.
-
AL sure loves herself some Foo. At least someone does...
-
Foo-ey. On this entire set. Jeezus what a colossal FAIL (and I *never* use that expression). Most depressing.

heh, me, too. I can stand it as a pop song w a god hook, but it doesn't make a a FF fan.
punch Dave Grohl...? I'm sure it's been done.
-
the thing is: Blondie's in town this week, that woulda been an excuse (plus, a "Maria Maria" --> "Maria" segue? Golden!)
-
AFAIK all of these are Katrinas, except for Lou Bega and maybe G Love.
For what seems like the 100th time...SOUTH SIDE IS NOT 1999!!!!!

wow, that's even less than 6 weeks. Thanks for doing that research. I prefer that set over today's (and I corrected my OP to say RGMike instead of Radical, but I think we're all on the same "This set blows" page).
I think Webster gave us a sign, we just chose to ignore it: "Up next, Ass-a- ... eh, ANNAlisa ...."

southside was released on Moby's 1999 album, Play. the Stefani/Moby version was recorded earlier but was supposed to be on the 1999 Play album.

But, Gwen the version didn't get on the album until the re-release in 2000 & was not officially released until the end of 2000 & hit big in 2001.

yeesh, sheesh and cheeze Louise. It looks like that G Love/Jackoff Johnson abomination was a bustout, FWIW.

This evening I was doing homework and needed something fairly boring and steady to listen to. I knew just the station to turn to... ::)
...and in that context, the set, this evening, didn't sound too bad. Or at least it didn't start off that way. Until Sting (w/ a song I otherwise like, actually) killed the momentum. The clips for this set, otoh, were very good and somewhat sardonic. Rodeo Clowns > "Dream Car" > Last Kiss = brilliant.
But what made this set an absolute tragedy, in my opinion, aside from the fact that it included not one, but two of the worst remakes of all time, was that the entire set was play it safe interchangeable borderline AAA/Alt standards, except for Sting, which was not on the correct side of the line for this set, and Lou Bega, which was not the right solo pop standard for a set like this. She really needed something more poppy, or with more electro...like Cher, or Britney, or better yet...all 3!
Looks like the Santana is also a bustout. To her credit, she hasn't played "Smooth" in a 1999 set yet. So is Lenny's version of AW.
We've hit 1999 5 times. Here's how many times we've heard what:
3

This evening I was doing homework and needed something fairly boring and steady to listen to...
rad, that was an extraordinary analysis. Seriously. And sadly, most '90s sets (give or take) tend to me more like this than not. Nobody's asking for 10 pop-chart bustouts, but one per set (the equivalent to "Let the Music Play" last week) surely wouldn't make the target demo run screaming from the room, would it?

To be honest, I don't think AL is really all that familiar with Top 40 hits. She had never heard "Let the Music Play" prior to playing it last week, which was a Billboard Top 10 hit back in '83. When you're charting unfamiliar territory, you just don't know what's cool/good/pop, as opposed to bad/crappy/pop. It all basically sounds the same, especially when there's no nostalgic factor.
I still can't believe she has mad love for the Foo Fighters. I don't get that at all. Other than that, she's the queen of the late 70s/early 80s alt stuff. I'd love to check out her record collection sometime!

True, and I suppose that was Dave's late '80s/early '90s problem too.
