Can y’all really believe that we’ve gone through 200 songs in the “It Came From The Nineties” series already? There’s been the good, the bad, and the ugly, but mostly just the good. I planned on posting something like 300 songs (in total) when this series kicked off back in January, and figured I’d post about once a week. At an average of 5.5 songs a week posted I’d say I’m right on track. If you are looking for more, you can always just find “1990’s” in the drop down category list on the sidebar to find all the other posts in this series and if you really love it and want to share it with all your friends, Stumble this post or any other.

Don’t stop don’t stop please don’t ever stop! Your series is what drew me to your blog and it allowing to relive a lot of great moments of my childhood, in a way I could have never done otherwise. So much deja-vu from what was played on the radio in those days. Your posts make me very very happy, thank you so much!
