was Dandy Warhols' "Bohemian Like You" from '99?

Don't know about the Warhols, but I think Santana/Rob Thomas piece of shite Smooth was drilling into our earholes in '99. Also Mambo #5, which wouldn't be too terrible.
Let's get right to it.

could one of you young folk do a summary so far of these unrecognizable songs?

"Smooth" was end of '99/beginning of '00.

It's left field, but what I'd like to hear is Paula Cole's "I Believe in Love."  Or, hell, even Cher's "Believe" would be amusing.

Hey, I'll give Annalisa major props for digging up this Sinead Lohan song.

BOS #1

Funny: KFOG played this at the time, but it's apparently not in the computer anymore, if the "just played" thingy is any measure.

But Fatboy Slim, which I don't think KFOG played, is showing up. Weird. This is a Live 105 song, to me.

A couple minutes ago the player said Tom Waits Hold On was next up, and now it says Old 97s Murder or a Heart Attack (ack-ack-ack-ack) is on deck.   I'd love to hear either--MoaH is a pretty catchy song.

ETA: OK, here's the Waits tune. BOS potential here.

I was young at the time ...

PS: It's a cold rain in NYC today.  Feels like Seattle in winter.  :(

If we get thru this without anything from that Santana album, I'll be impressed.  But hey -- Cher's "Believe" is from '99!

Me too. Saw him in the summer of 99 from second row seats at the Paramount. Truly amazing.

I think REM had an album in '99 too--Up?
