There's no way this Blur song has been on 10at10 before.  Certainly different from the rest of the stuff.  That Damon Albarn is a pretty clever dude.

I believe it was in the Pride Set in June. But AL has def played it before.

Oh well.  I know nothing.  BOS for Soundgarden's "Black Hole Sun".

This came out about the time I started listening to KOME, which was heavy into grunge at the time.

this entire set belongs in a black hole.  Sorry, '90s on Friday makes me break out the crankypants.

Was "Black Hole Sun" supposed to be deep?  I never saw the point of it.

Nope, it's supposed to be heavy.  It reeks of heaviosity.  And I feel fine.

AAAACK! DMB to really put the screws to us. Seems wrong to bitch too much as AL's been doing stellar work lately, but... my least fave set of hers in ages.  Hope this is first in the marathon tomo'w so i can sleep thru it.

The one custom of Dave's that AL has been pretty much adamant about not following is 60s on Friday. If she's done two 60s sets on a Friday since she's been in the driver's seat, I'd say that's a lot. Guessing it's more like one or none (classics not included).
Let's get right to it.

I remember when Ants Marching was out (& what would you say) the entire world seemed to go gaga over DMB.  Now everyone hates them.  Oh, how the mighty have fallen.

I'll admit their sound was original back then.  By the time they got around to Busted Stuff, it wasn't so original anymore, but still solid.  But their latest two have been horrendous -- Stand Up and that Groogrux diaster?!?! What the hell happened to them.

BOS.

I felt fine, too. But I can understand. Having had been a Soundgarden fans for years by that point, BHS sounded a bit...poppy.

At least it took awhile - I think it took about six months for Hootie & The Blowfish to go from media darlings to critically maligned.

Personally, I dig 1994 - even if pop music was at a bit of a crossroads at the time. To each their own!
