"Leonardo was king and Kenny kept getting killed"
Titanic and South Park both debuted in '97, so I guess that's it. Our last visit was 3 months ago, amazingly.
1. Third Eye Blind - Semi-Charmed Life
2. Chumbawumba - Tubthumping
3. Jonnhy Lang - Lie To Me
(Commercial -Make 7-up-yours)
4. U2 - Staring At the Sun
(Movie: Titanic.)
5. Sixpence None The Richer - There She Goes
6. Big Head Todd & The Monsters - Boom Boom
(News: Princess Di killed in a car crash.)
7. Radiohead - Karma Police
8. Ben Folds Five - Brick
9. Smashmouth - Walking On The Sun
(TV: Ellen. Ellen's gay. Complete surprise.)
10. Sister Hazel - All For You
-
TOTHK -
Cherry Poppin' Daddies Big Bad Voodoo Daddy "You And Me And The Bottle Makes Three Tonight"
-
eek: the Swing Revival in full, er, swing. WOS1 "You & Me & the Bottle Makes Three"
-
The KFOG player says it's Big Bad Voodoo Daddy
It could have been worse...it could have been Zoot Suit Riot or Hell.
I hope this isn't the "one rarity" we get.

"Resignation Superman" Big Head Todd & The Monsters

"Resignation Superman" Big Head Todd & The Monsters
can't say I remember hearing this one in '97 -- certainly not on KFOG. So it's a DC rarity, I guess. I never much liked BHT&tMs and this isn't changing my mind.

Got the bands mixed up ;)
-
VHM John Cusack in Grosse Pointe Blank.
-
Everclear "I Will Buy You A New Life"
-
VHM Everclear.
-
Resignation Superman is in the 2nd tier popularity-wise of BHT/M singles. I'm glad it wasn't Bittersweet, It's Alright, or Please Don't Tell Her.

Meredith Brooks is a "Bitch"
-
that Meredith Brooks -- what a bitch. One of the many Alanis clonings of that period. "Hey, let's sign up some angry-sounding girl singers!"
ETA: half the lyrics websites tag this as being Ms. Morrisette. LOL.
-
Sarah McLachlan "Angel"
-
Diana dies. Sarah McLesbian cries.
-
WOS Sarah McLesbian, although decent flow so far.

indeed, not a song I really needed to hear, but a nice segue, and the dead Diana clip was mercifully short.
-
WOS2 Snooze Babbler.
-
Blues Traveler "Most Precarious"
Not "Runaround" or "Hook"! :o
-
Third Eye Blind "Jumper"
-
We're something like 6 or 7 songs in and I can't say I've heard one that I've missed or that I recall fondly. Typical DC snooze.
-
Rolling Stones "Saint of Me"
-
All that glitters is not Gary
BOS Stones. No, really.
-
LN 3EB.

agreed -- a combination of Triple-A being not terribly interesting at the time and DC unwilling to bust out some pop-chart goodies (Hanson, for example)
-
"Da Funk" Daft Punk
-
BOS2 Daft Punk. Surprised I haven't heard this on Masters-in-the-Morning yet. Live 105 played this to death.

I have. It still gets a Live 105 spin here & there.

Lisa Loeb "I Do"
-
Lisa Loeb attempts a comeback in '97. VHM "I Do", sounding surprisingly nice for some reason.

A few more sets like this and I'm going to start looking for other 10am listening options. This is just a waste of my time.
-
Except for #s 6-7, this could have turned out a lot worse.
-
Per Renee: 2-way tie for BOS - McLachlan and Daft Punk
-
Flipped to Live 105 and heard the Cardigans, "Lovefool", which would've been welcome in this set. Ditto "Brimful of Asha"or the aforementioned Hanson.

The only thing more scarce than '60s sets in the RR/DC era are late '90s ('96-'99)/early 2000s sets.
-
1. Big Bad Voodoo Daddy - You & Me & the Bottle Makes Three
2. Big Head Todd and the Monsters - Resignation Superman
(Movie: Grosse Point Blank)
3. Everclear - I Will Buy You A New Life
4. Meredith Brooks - Bitch
(News: Diana dead)
5. Sarah McLachlan - Angel
6. Blues Traveler - Most Precarious
7. Third Eye Blind - Jumper
(News: Gary Glitter busted for kiddie porn)
8. Rolling Stones - Saint of Me
9. Daft Punk - Da Funk
10. Lisa Loeb - I Do

Once again, a '90s set, a period where I will not have been over-exposed to the tunes,
most of which will be new to me and, in the end, forgettable.
I like the Meredith Brooks song, don't mind the swing revival of BBVD, and... that's about it.
Most of the rest was pleasant but didn't have much impact on me. Oh, except for Angel. It's
a pretty song, but it reminds of the Wings of Desire remake, City Of Angels, with Nicolas Cage
and Meg Ryan. I haven't seen the Wim Wenders original, but the I find the premise of CoA
dumb. To use christian terminology, if you're an angel living in the grace of God in eternal ecstasy,
there's NFW that you would want to incarnate as a material mortal, even for a babe like Meg.

Good/Necessary:
1. C/C
2. C/B (guilty displeasure)
3. C/D
4. B/A (oddly, I don't believe this has gotten much love lately)
5. C/C (I love McLachlan, and don't necessarily mind the snoozy rarity, but this is absurdly low-key).
6. B/B
7. B/B
8. B/A
9. B/A
10. B/B
This is about as good as we can expect from 97, methinks.

Shhhhh! Don't give them any ideas!
