Good Lord: SmashMouth too? It's an LN-fest today.

I don't think these years (actually anything between late '80's and early '00's) suck, but the lack of stretching out by 10@10 does. But that's not exactly a new idea on this board.

Agreed -- '97 is above-average, as '90s years go (and we did get "MMMMBop" recently) but sticking to the KFOG playlist for songs we hear constantly is a drag.

This should be framed in Pugh's office.

I like the Loreena McKennitt song too. It had risen up the pop chart with Will Smith "Gettin' Jiggy Wit It," but I was mad that McKennitt hit #13 and took a nosedive whereas Will Smith kept on going up.

But most of this set is worse than the average DC-era late 90s set.

LOL!  I just now realized I mistook Matchbox 20 for them.  Hilarious. And also sad.

Yes. Why can't the electronica/rock hybrid of this period (Chemical Brothers, Prodigy, for example) make an appearance? It was on the radio a lot, and I don't think it would freak out too many KFOG listeners.
