16 July 2007: something 90's promised - it's '91
« on: July 16, 2007, 08:46:37 AM »
Heard a weekend promo where Dave promises something from our least favorite decade.  Happy Monday y'all!

ETA: it turns out to be 1991, does that mean Dave is actually going to play "Rico Suave"?

Why couldn't he play "O.P.P." instead?

Yuck -- altho' if it's our first visit to '97, i'd at least be interested to see what he plays. But i guess if it were '97, he'd've made a point of it.

I was hoping for '97.  Instead we get a Girlfriend named Katrina in '91.

Did the stream address change?  I couldn't connect without using the pop-up from KFrOG.  And it sounds worse than it did last week through Winamp.

BOS to Seal's "Crazy" since I don't think the year gets much better than this.  At least not as Dave recalls it (i.e., no Bell Biv DeVoe, Babyface, no Londonbeat, no New Jack Swing).

PS: Was I the only one here who enjoyed Alanis's cover of this?

Matthew Sweet - Girlfriend, one of the 5 big grievous Katrinas from '91.  I bet Dave plays at least three of 'em.  I also think I smell Iggy Pop "Candy", which is a minor Katrina.

The other 4 big grievous Katrinas:
Color Me Badd - All 4 Love
EMF - Unbelievable
Metallica - Enter Sandman
Rembrandts - Just the Way it is, Baby

I've been wondering the same thing, actually.

That's from some Goo Goo Dolls song, right?  I couldn't tell you which one; they're all interchangeable to me.

Well, there's "Hurt" from Nine Inch Nails (and notably, Johnny Cash):

Who's this singing with Ms. Raitt?  Sounds a bit like Bobby Womack, but less prone to outbursts.

WOS to Jesus Jones, which I loved when it came out but succumbed to one of the worst cases of overkill in pop history.
