Title: 27 Feb 2013: it's... 1995
Post by: CapnJack on February 27, 2013, 09:33:18 AM
Clue #1: George Foreman Grill introduced (1994)

Clue #2: Dolly the cloned sheep (1996)

Does that mean Renee will meet halfway in 1995?  ::)

From the "Friends" soundtrack, and of course did not chart until the tail end of 1996 (and then hung around forever into 1997 despite not going very high).

I agree, it's not one of their more overplayed ones.  Maybe because it was out after they stopped being cool.

Seal - Kiss from a Rose.  Well this is a sledgehammer if I ever heard one (or is it a zeitgeist?) 
It evokes memories of the summer of 95, fireworks, air conditioning, pizza delivery & pepsi.

EDIT: And she actually played it in the right year, not the "release year".  :P

#2 was the ascendance of Ms. Alanis Morissette.

I want to say it's been played (the five hits have all been, IIRC), as has "Thank U". "Uninvited", "So Pure", "Unsent" and "Hands Clean" are still up for grabs.

I don't think there are many 90's tracks that I would BOS without at least a hint irony involved.  It may be a personal failing, but I don't take post-80's music very seriously.

I went to college with her (given name, Annie Danielewski). Some friends of mine suggested to her that I jam with her, but that never happened. Shoot, I COULD HAVE BEEN IN POE. Or in a band with Poe. Or something. (No double entendres intended.)
