here is a preview to my 90s mix:
1990 - nothing compares 2 U - sinead o'connor. love this song. love her. this song reminds me of washing walls (flower wallpaper) in the summer time when my cousins moved. it was the first time i had heard it and i wanted to die i loved it so much.
1991 - out to get you - james. again. i know. but i LOVE james. and this song is so wonderful.
1992 - free your mind - en vogue. en vogue was iconic for me at this age because my older brother was OBSESSED with them. thus, i became obsessed as well.
1993 - what's up - 4 non blondes. i can.not get enough of this song. ever. i love linda perry and i love this song. i remember my cousins that lived in west virginia were super 'rebels' because they listened to this song while i listened to the little mermaid soundtrack. we would ship mixed tapes to each other. and i would get cool stuff like this song, and they would get disney mania. this is a great version of the song. cuz pink is awesomeballs. even though they broke up. sad sad day.
1994 - strong enough - sheryl crow. i love this entire album. but i didn't really get into it until the 2000s.
1995 - any man of mine - shania twain. OMG. first time i heard this i was at the gym and i d.i.e.d. this beat still rocks me. and i still want to dance in a country hall with wooden floors and peanuts in my shit kicking cowboy boots. whilst being sprayed down by a hose. whilst undressing. ie - coyote ugly.
1996 - all mixed up - 311. EVERYONE in st. george was obsessed with 311 during high school. me not so much. but it just reminds me of good times with my friends and everyone getting caught (except for me) at a 311 concert, high. fun.
1996 - wannabe - spice girls. i was a maniac when this song came on for school dances. that's all.
1997. the freshmen - the verve pipe. again, high school. and actually this song really is one of my very favs. i don't know why. i love this guy's voice. and then i bought the tape, and hated the rest of the album. one hit wonder.
1997 - dammit - blink 182. again. sorry. but i didn't even hear this until at least 2000 and fell in love with the band then.
1998 - all my life - k-ci and jojo. you can skip this one nicki ;) so the story with this is that i LOVED this song so much and wasn't getting napsterish yet. so the only station i could get it on in my car was through vegas. and there was one street in my neighborhood that i could barely stream the station through. so i remember several times just sitting in the middle of the road singing like a maniac to this song.
1999 - this years love - david gray. i didn't hear of david gray until 2002. and i haven't stopped since. i love this man. he is amazing. i have seen him one time live and it was the best 2 hours of my life. he played this song whilst playing the piano all by his lonesome at the concert. amazeballs. there are other instruments in this one, but you get the point. grand piano. lights low. gorgeous.
there's my 90s mix. hope you like. thanks christine for the theme. it was fun.
