thanks. i see now why 1996 has yet to receive a spin. any songs from that list that kfog might play would be pure torture.

i think i'll just ask for any set that would include either, jeff buckley, jonatha brooke, or esther phillips.

1996 wasn't as bad as one might infer from the charts: many of the year's better tunes didn't chart b/c the artists' labels wouldn't release them as singles (forcing the customers to buy albums instead -- a policy that can be directly blamed for the astonishing adoption of file-sharing proggies like Napster).  You could choose from the following:

Poe, "Angry Johnny"
Fiona Apple, "Shadowboxer"
No Doubt, "Don't Speak" or "Spiderwebs"
Smashing Pumpkins, "33"
R.E.M., "E-Bow the Letter" (or was this '97?)
Oasis, "What's the Story, Morning Glory?"
Alanis Morissette, "Head Over Feet"
Fastball, "The Way"
302, "Where My Girls At?"
Marilyn Manson, "Sweet Dreams Are Made of This" (I DARE Dave to play this!)

Also, Gin Blossoms, "Until I Fall Away" or "Til I Hear It From You."

My personal faves from '96:

"You're One", Imperial Teen
"Popular", Nada Surf
"Pepper", Butthole Surfers
"Blue", LeAnn Rimes (when she was good)
"Charmless Man", Blur
"Ladykillers", Lush
"High-Fivin' Motherf**ker", Local H
What's Left?, the Foremen
BR5-49, BR5-49

and I second Gaz's endorsement of Oasis & No Doubt.

Predictions of what Dave will play:

"Standing Outside a Broken etc", Primitive Radio Gods
"1979", Smashing Pumpkins
"Breakfast at Tiffany's", Deep Blue Something
"Change the World", Clapton
"Counting Blue Cars", Dishwalla
"Free As a Bird", Beatles (yay)
"I Want To Come Over", M. Etheridge
"I Saw You First (Key west whatever)", Mellencamp
"Private Conversation", Lyle Lovett
No Doubt, Jewel, Alanis

But will Dave dare play "The Macarena"? Will he play the Fugees' "Killing Me Softly" (even tho' he's never played the Roberta Flack original)?

What happened to Alicat?

I'm still here and check in at night when the day is too busy. Too much Sh$! at work. From 9-about noon I was in one meeting or another. Day got busy after that much down time.

Name   The Goo Goo Dolls
You Learn   Alanis Morissette

The World I Know   Collective Soul
Time   Hootie & The Blowfish
Hook   Blues Traveler
Closer to Free   The BoDeans
Old Man and Me   Hootie & The Blowfish
If It Makes You Happy   Sheryl Crow
As I Lay Me Down   Sophie B. Hawkins
Jealousy   Natalie Merchant
I Want to Come Over   Melissa Etheridge
Only Wanna Be With You   Hootie & The Blowfish

Wonder - Natalie Merchant

Ooh.  Her finest moment.  I thought of this when my friends Dave* and Rebecca had their baby lasy July.

Hook - Blues Traveler

Destined to become a 10@10 staple on the order of "Good Thing."

As I Lay Me Down - Sophie B. Hawkins

This was a hit in 1995 -- I remember b/c I played it constantly while living in Boston that summer.  Since it was a massive AC hit, it may have still been on the charts in '96, though.

Don't Cry - Seal

This would be a stretch; the album was 1994, and though the singles were stretched out over a span of time, I don't think this was '96.  But I'd be happy to hear it anyway.

i've never heard that sophie song. the only two songs of hers i know i "damn. i wish..." and her version of "i gotcha," which is fab.

seal won a grammy nod for "don't cry" in '96, i'm pretty sure. i have that song on some 1996 grammy compilation cd. i'll verify later.
