and he'll play "That Thing You Do"! Woo Hoo!

nice start with "Follow You Down".

is this the gin blossoms? must be - it sounds just like "hey, jealousy."

predictions: Clapton, "Change the World". and of course "Breakfast at Tiffany's", "Counting Blue Cars". And some Jewel.

god - i hate 1996 already. and here's john (cougar mellen) camp.

Seems Dave has suddenly rediscovered John Mellencamp, especially his later stuff.

Dead certainty that Dave won't play my favorite song of the year: 311's "All Mixed Up".

One down, but I'm dubious about hearing Jewel. Definitely expecting the Dishwalla.

now you're talking! i could go for everything but the girl's "missing," brandy, jann arden, and dishwalla.
i wish reg weren't so damned psychic. the very moment when babyface killed eric clapton.

BOS Eric. Used in the movie Phenomenon. Loved that.

Wish I could cop to psychic ability, but this one was a no-brainer. Now if I'd predicted (and he'd played) Wynonna's version -- that'd be something.
-
i never saw "that thing you do."
2 for reg.

UGH! Hideous. sappy. Travolta. Revolta.

I didn't predict this one; Dave spilled the beans around 9:45. BOS tho'. Written by that guy from Fountains of Wayne.

Cool movie & damn funny in bits. If you like Liv Tyler, this is a must see, she is just so appealing.
But Dave copped in advance to this, so Reg is not twice psychic. yet.

Actually, this is one of those automated percussion instruments that always play at exactly the right time. You've heard of it. It's an autoclave.

WOS2: Alanis. No, bitch, it's NOT "ironic". Jeez.

Ick. Here's my WOS, by a longshot. Ironic. No, Alanis. It's not ironic. That's not irony. It's just dumb luck. Go back to the theater. I'll see you there.

it was a rough year. every song from alanis' album charted. almost. jars of clay was as close as pop came to hard rock. unless candlebox had a song that year. besdies, who listens to lyrics? i would never have known it was christian rock if i hadn't seen them on a christian music channel. the song is dope. listen to those cymbals and strings!
-
Whew! Sorry I'm late...
BOS Liv Tyler
This "Isn't It Ironic" song? Is actually filled with coincidences as opposed to "ironies". I learned that on 'Pop-Up Videos'.
I just don't care about Eric Clapton. There. I said it.
Heh-heh. "auto-clave".
John Travolta is a higher-level Operating Thetan than Tom Cruise.

This was produced by Adrian Belew (I just glanced at the AMG summary, didn't know that in advance), and he did the string arrangements & played mandolin.

Wallflowers. It was HUGE on KFOG that year.

oh, the wallflowers. right...i slept through them.

No- but he called the Fifth Dimension to see if they'd play the Scientology Holiday party....

Indeed as a bit of a 'word purist' I hate the way she misuses the word in this song.
**alanis ducks**

No, she cowrote everything on the album with Glenn Ballard, who also wrote "The Man In The Mirror" & had jsut produced Wilson Phillips before this album.

This will become the first '96 Katrina after a few more visits, I predict.

wilson phillips had an album just before 1996? scary. oh, mr. ballard...such a fine, local talent. normally. maybe "ironic" has a different meaning in canadian, eh?

They've got that harmony thing going that reminds me of School of Fish and King's X (remember those guys, speaking of Christian rock?) I don't think their name holds up very well, though maybe it means something to someone.

In sets of this era the whole set becomes a Katrina. I bet Clapton, Gin Blossoms, Wallflowers & this will all be played the next time. And probably one more song that he hasn't played yet.

hey - it's the lenny kravitz song that spawned a lyric-writing contest. i remember trying to write lyrics to this song for the contest. wasn't very inspired....

dishwalla are the guys who instal satellites in india, from what i remember. ah, yes...school of fish! quite a fun band. who was the lead singer? josh someone? he died young....and everytime i read king's x, i think of "detachable penis," so i'm certain i'm not thinking of the same band. christians and penises don't go together.

:lol: That's King Missile you're thinking of. Much more penile, I'd have to say. I don't know much about School of Fish, though I bought the CD on the strength of "Three Strange Days". Ditto for King's X for their song...what was it?

I remember both of them well. Still have the School Of Fish CD & listen to it with some regularity.
Dishwalla was from Santa Barbara, pretty sure I saw them at a campus gig or two, but there's nothing I remember beyond the name (this was 89-92).

OK now I'm lost. Didn't recognize Lenny and who is this now?

That weren't so bad. Just don't want to go back too soon...

King's X - "It's Love"
School of Fish - Josh Clayton-Felt. Died of the same cancer that didn't kill Lance Armstrong.
-
another prediction: we won't revisit '96 until next year. This was the latest a "new" year has ever been visited. Usually we go in Jan. Wonder what the reason was?

Yep. That's the one. Too bad about the Josh dude. I always imagined that they were really young. Spose they could have been...AMG confirms he died at 32, and they were college-age when their hit came out in 1991.

Actually I thought it was not bad -- I knew 8 out of 10 songs, and that counts for something in a '90s set. But Lenny's the only '90s black guy Dave knows, obviously. Well, besides the members of Portrait...

-

oh, yeah. there's living colour, too. i don't know about u, but i will never confuse the band name with the television show.
-
Bonus Track: Johnny Cool, Brian Setzer. Don't know that I've heard it before...
-
Davefish - Portrait's "Here We Go Again" is a major 1992 Katrina.
All - The other Dishwalla worth checking out is their version of "It's Gonna Take Some Time" from If I Were a Carpenter.
I would have given BOS to Gin Blossoms. '96 would have benefited from some Poe ("Angry Johnny") as well. Can't wait til '97, the last great year for modern pop-rock, hits the wheel.
Re: Living Colour - Didn't the band sue the show, or the show sue the band, or something like that?
King's X are still recording, but they haven't done anything I liked since "Over My Head" way back in '91 or thereabouts.
-
Can't wait til '97, the last great year for modern pop-rock, hits the wheel.
you & me both, bub! I predict Dave will play Hanson's "MMMMBop" and Chumbawumba when we visit '97. And I'll hope for Cornershop, "Brimful of Asha".

i remember "mmmmbop." but, althought chumba and cornershop both ring a bell, i can't remember those songs. scary...of course, i stopped religiously listening to the radio sometime in '96. things are very vague after that.
-
9/08/05 - Thursday! Could it really be....1996?!!!
Gin Blossoms - Follow You Down
John Mellencamp - Key West Intermezzo
Eric Clapton - Change the World
The Wonders - That Thing You Do (BEST OF SET!!!)
Jars of Clay - Flood
Alanis Morrisette - Ironic
Wallflowers - Three Marlenas
Dishwalla - Counting Blue Cars
Lenny Kravitz - Can't Get You Off My Mind
Odds - Someone Who's Cool
BONUS TRACK: Brian Setzer Orchestra - (The Legend of) Johnny Cool
-
BOS Eric. Used in the movie Phenomenon. Loved that.
UGH! Hideous. sappy. Travolta. Revolta.
By the way, I have to explain the word 'corny' to the kids.
I like "Phenomenon" too, even though it was tres corny!

Was kind of sorry to miss today's set, if only because it was the first visit to 96, but I had a pet situation to deal with (thankfully the pooch seems to be recovering), so pretty much missed it all. Although looking at the setlist, the only song I really would have dug was the one that sounded like it was from 1965: That Thing You Do.
Aside: when I saw Fountains of Wayne a couple months back, someone shouted out for That Thing You Do. Adam Schlesinger's response: "Uhh, security!! Over here..."
-

Well, I suppose he's earned the right to be cutesy about it, but he's probably made more from that song than from the entire FOW catalog ("Stacey's Mom" included).

I'm sure you're right, so long as the authorship wasn't a "work for hire." FWIW, peak chart position of "That Thing You Do" was #41 and "Stacey's Mom" was #21.
-
Pulled out my "best of '96" mix tape... here are few obvious omissions (maybe next time?):
Primitive Radio Gods, "Standing Outside a Phone booth etc"
Lyle Lovett, "Private Conversation"
Both of those were KFOG playlist biggies. We could've also heard
Butthole Surfers, "Pepper"
Nada Surf, "Popular"
Imperial Teen "You're One"
Lush, "Ladykillers"
Local H, "High-Fivin' Motherf----er"
all of which got major Live 105 play, along with multiple tracks by Oasis and No Doubt. For soul, Dave coulda thrown in the Fugees.
But at least he spared us "The Macarena".

and also:
Cardigans, "Lovefool"
Ben Folds Five, "Brick"
Mighty Mighty Bosstones, "Impression That I Get"
Reel Big Fish, "Sell Out"
Green Day, "Time of Your Life" (that one's a lock, I'd wager)
Blur, "Song 2" (aka the "WOO HOO!" song)
Steve Earle, "Telephone Road"
Squirrel Nut Zippers, "Hell"
Big Blue Hearts, "Nobody Wants Her"

Would MUCH rather get "The Battle of Who Could Care Less" from Ben Folds Five. But yeah, you've nailed most of the big targets; I'd only add White Town's "Your Woman," Portishead's "Nobody Loves Me" (whatever the real title is), U2's "Discotheque," and Space's "Female of the Species."
Oh, and Cake's "The Distance," though I never liked that one.

You are absolutely right about the Ben Folds -- it got heavy Live 105 play for a brief period, and was my introduction to BFF. I love that song. KFOG never picked up on it, but they did play "Brick" later in the year. "Battle of..." seems to have been completely forgotten; it didn't even make Live 105's year-end Top 105 list.
And oh yes, "Female of the Species", which only missed being on my best-of tape because I couldn't find a copy in time.

Also add in Sneaker Pimps' "6 Underground" and No Doubt's "Spiderwebs" or "Don't Speak," while I'm in that time-warp. Damn, what a year.
"This should cheer you up for sure / Y'see, I found your old ID: You're all dressed up like the Cure."

"spiderwebs" and "don't speak" were from different albums, weren't they? the other no doubt hit from '96 was "i'm just a girl," or something like that...
