gotta assume it's our '90s day. '99, '98 and '96 are the most-overdue, if that means anything.
-
Clue: year Charles and Diana split -- 1996?

Clue: year Charles and Diana split -- 1996?
DING! DING! DING!
interesting pre- set lineup: they played the White Stripes "My Doorbell" which I didn't realize was back in rotay. Nice.
OTOH, they also played Moby w/Stefani "Southside" which is one of my Most. Annoying. Songs. EVAH.
in fact they played a new song "Hero" by Family of the Year, followed by White Stripes, Moby, and Imagine Dragons... so 2 currents and 2 songs not older than 1999.
Gawd, the "banter" between Renee and Greg/Tim is horrid. Every day.

And Stefani had turned up earlier in the hour too, as they played No Doubt's Just A Girl.

TOTHK - Gin Blossoms "Follow You Down"
-
I think the Gin Blossoms are like spoiled comfort food, but this actually kinda works as the TOTHK.
-
VHM Gin Blossoms, altho' it's a fairly predictable choice.
-
Beck "The New Pollution"
-
Beck "The New Pollution"
I'll VHM this too, actually.
-
uber-LN Beck
-
Cake "The Distance"
-
uber-uber-LN: Cake.
-
Uber LN 2 Cake
-
Matchbox 20 "Real World"
-
WOS
Cher Matchbox 20.
-
Luscious Jackson "Naked Eye"
-
Power Rangers for fruits'n'veggies!
uber-LN2 Luscious Jackson.
-
R.E.M. "Electrolite"
-
Luscious Jackson "Naked Eye"
Always mondegreened this one as "With my naked eye asshole..."
-
VHM REM "Electrolite", a relative rarity.
-
I can't get excited about this snoozy REM rarity that sounds like a slowed down version of everything else by REM.
-
Paula Cole "Where Have All The Cowboys Gone?"
-
uber-WOS2 Paula Cole.
-
Paula Cole "Where Have All The Cowboys Gone?"
Has she got Sarah McLachlan singing backup on this? Sure sounds like one of her tunes.
-
Sublime "Santeria"
-
Paula Cole "Where Have All The Cowboys Gone?"
Has she got Sarah McLaughlin singing backup on this? Sure sounds like one of her tunes.
and how does she think cowboys treat women, exactly? No better than the oaf she's married to.
WOS3 Sublime -- the Police with less brains and more tats.
-
This set is LN-city
-
Dave Matthews Band "So Much To Say"
-
NOOOOOOOOO!! WOS4 DMB. this set is turning out quite awful.
-
This set is LN-city
and they're LNs that I hated to begin with! Ugh.

One of any number of lameass SoCal ska/reggae-influenced bands that managed to catch on. See also 311, No Doubt, and others I have managed to block from my memory.
Jeez, now we get DMB? Yes, this set is all-LN, all the time.

I think the Dirty Heads, too, fall into that category.

Squirrel Nut Zippers "Hell"
-
BOS Fargo. oh, yah.
"Hell" -- appropriate for this set.
-
Squirrel Nut Zippers "Hell"
As appropriate an end to this set as there could be. Shoot me now.
-
This set was wretched. At least the past two or so weeks most of the sets at least tried to be interesting. But today, everything was so LN it wasn't even funny, except for REM which might as well have been because I couldn't distinguish it from anything else they've done.
-
BOS Fargo. oh, yah.
"Hell" -- appropriate for this set.
Appropriate JINX!!
-
"third song"... "fourth song"... "fifth song"... why does she need to say that for every song. We can count, RR.
-
"third song"... "fourth song"... "fifth song"... why does she need to say that for every song. We can count, RR.
Has she stopped saying "Tune number one" "Tune number two"?
Isn't it funny the things that turn you off?
I've heard it said you fall in love with the whole person, right away. But you fall out of love, bit by excruciating bit.
-
granted '96 is not my favorite year but here was my entire 1996 Wish List during the AL era, and the asterisked ones are songs she actually played.
*Pepper (Butthole Surfers)
*Popular (Nada Surf)
You’re One (Imperial Teen)
*Ladykillers (Lush)
*That Thing You Do! (the Wonders)
Bohemian Rhapsody (The Braids)
*My Maria (Brooks & Dunn)

Renee sez Squirrel Nut Zippers gets BOS; VHM to R.E.M. and Sublime.
-
Saw the year, never turned on the radio -- went with pandora this morning. Looks as if I'm a clever boy this morning...

That only applies if you were in love to begin with. :P

TANC - last night, on a whim, I created a pseudo 10@10 for 1996 using Renee's intro/outro and the usual KFOG sounds. Here's what I came up with:
1. Paul Westerberg - Love Untold
2. Tina Turner - Confidential
(Commercial: M2 watchers)
3. Beck - Lord Only Knows
(TV: NewsRadio - betting next song on the radio sucks)
4. Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers - Asshole
(Johnny Cash talks about Beck)
5. Johnny Cash - Rowboat
(Hit number 6-6-6...)
6. The Quad City DJ's - C'mon N' Ride It (The Train)
(And now for something completely different...)
7. Squirrel Nut Zippers - Bad Businessman
(Movie: The Rock - Nic Cage is a Beatlemaniac with a vinyl fetish)
8. Elvis Costello & The Attractions - Shallow Grave
(Movie: Bound - cup of coffee)
9. Prince - Dinner With Delores
10. Liz Phair - Rocket Boy
Using Audacity and some YouTube clips, I think I did better job than today's effort (if I do say so myself). If anyone wants to listen to it, I can upload it somewhere. ;)

TANC: Funny that you chose a song from EC's All This Useless Beauty to include in your fantasy set. After not hearing it for more than a decade, I just pulled that album out for a revisit the day before yesterday, and am wondering what took me so long. It's held up really well--some very nicely crafted songs on there. Also notable as the last Attractions album. Following this one Bruce Thomas got the sack and the band morphed into the Imposters, with Davey Farragher on bass. </costellofanatic>

This sums things up pretty well. Normally I'd also give #6 a B for necessary, but in the context of being the set's only rarity, it drops it to a D.

Okay, I finally uploaded this file to SoundCloud, for anyone willing to listen:

If you do bother listening, let me know what you think.
ETA: I just took this file down to add another. If you want to listen to it, let me know, and I will reupload it.
ETA: Reuploaded. Same link as above.

listening now.. nice job!
I'm not a huge Westerberg fan and didn't dig that song -- at least the tune. But I didn't play close attn to his lyrics. Which I'm sure are great. It's just that.. I don't know.. what if I don't like the sound? will I ever REALLY listen? REALLY? ;)
Love the Tina -- who's singing backup for Tina? Is the Neil Tennant?
That Beck song is great, too. Dayum. Can you please get a job at KFOG?
The News Radio clip: I think I get it -- Andy Dick's character is the "Asshole" that Petty sings about? :) Because only as asshole would say Wichita Lineman sucks. It has been scientifically proven to be one of the best songs ever written.
Is this one of the songs that Rick Rubin made Johnny Cash (Cow) lay down? B/c that stuff is awesome. Sounds like every single guitar amp in that song has a torn speaker cone. love it.
Quad City DJs. This is one of my faves from this year.
Ah, Squirrel Nut Zippers. I remember the swing thing happening. I went to the Brown Derby in LA one night and the joint was jumping. The Rock: I sa that when the Century Westfield theaters first opened.: They had this wonderful deal: five bucks for all their movies all day long, and the movies were all SF themed ones. The Rock, It Came From beneath the Sea, Bullit, maybe Vertigo?
I like that Prince and Liz Phair song., which reminds me of this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0933KDaWATM
excellent job, Cap'n!

Love the Tina -- who's singing backup for Tina? Is the Neil Tennant?
Yes, the tune was written by the Pet Shop Boys for Tina. The Pet Shop Boys demo of the song was released on the compilation Format.
The News Radio clip: I think I get it -- Andy Dick's character is the "Asshole" that Petty sings about? :) Because only as asshole would say Wichita Lineman sucks. It has been scientifically proven to be one of the best songs ever written.
As Dave Foley's character says, "I love that song!" :)
Is this one of the songs that Rick Rubin made Johnny Cash (Cow) lay down? B/c that stuff is awesome. Sounds like every single guitar amp in that song has a torn speaker cone. love it.
Yes it is, from his album Unchained.
The Beck/Petty/Cash numbers were part of a Beck-written trio of songs that I strung together as a theme, if anyone was wondering.
