BOS Freedy Johnston and his bad rep.

[Gazoo]

BOS to the Pretenders' last great gasp, the criminally ignored "Night in My Veins."  (I understand why "I'll Stand By You" was the hit, but thought it inferior.)

Diito -- great tune. I love Chrissie when she goes in for rough trade.

WOS Shawshank Redemption, one of The. Most. Overrated. Movies. EVAH!

WOS Shawshank Redemption, one of The. Most. Overrated. Movies. EVAH!

I was about to say!  I've had a few friends insist to me that it's one of the most profound films they'd ever seen, but when I finally saw it, I was ... well, "meh."

[Gazoo]

Proxy of Cairo for Jeff Buckley's "Last Goodbye."

With their tanks,
And their bombs,
And their bombs,
And their guns,
The Cranberries garner a WOS both for their lyrics and Dolores's annoying yodelflection.

for some reason thirtysomethings discovered it on cable and have watched it over and over (it didn't really do all that well theatrically, despite Oscar noms). It is a puzzlement.

AAAAACK! Cranberries in your head -- WOS2 "Zombie".

Then again, between the Cranberries and Toad the Wet Sprocket, this is exactly what my dining hall sounded like in 1994.  All that's missing is Sideshow Bob.  And Erasure's "Always," a left-field hit that spring.

WOS3 Sheryl "Lance would you like to eat some Crow".

[RGMike]

VHM AbFab, sweetie darling.

yikes, Big Snore Todd & the Snoozers.

[RGMike]

sorry -- Alice in Chains is an Unguilty Displeasure for me.

[RGMike]

another BOS for James' fabulous orig version of "Laid". One of the truly great singles of the '90s IMHO.
