LN-iest request (tie): Fastball "The Way" and Sister Hazel "All For You" -- if we hear both I may go postal.

just for shirts and goggles I looked at 1998 in music on wikipedia and came up with "Teardrop" by Massive Attack. 

Chance it would even be considered: .05%

Great song, though
Slipping into something
And out of something else

Sadly, I won't be around for this set, so take copious notes!

I was gonna pass, but I'll take one for the team.  ;)

AL actually posted a clip of Madonna's "Ray of Light" in her thread (which got, like, 6 likes) and if she actually plays it (given her dislike of Madge) I'll be impressed.

Garbage, "Special".  I'll give this one a VHM.

All one tempo so far. The biggest problem with late '90's sets.

"Flying": while not bad, I don't think it's a good idea to start off a set with a song from an artist whose sound is the same every year.
"Special": kind of an FF, but at least they didn't play the snoozy version of it (which I like, but not during 10@10).
This Jonathan Richman song is NTM.

Ah, nothing says 1998 like mid-tempo swing.

more ...Mary --> "Big time Operator" BBVD. Not a fan of the swing revival, but this is fairly inoffensive.

uber-LN BNLs, "It's All Been Done" Why yes -- it HAS.

ETA: actually, I liked this at the time; it was the old-school-sounding alternative for stations that found "One Week" too annoying.
