It came from the nineties (Vol. 53)
Here’s another dose of 90’s goodness right on the heels of the last one. I remember the first time I ever heard the band Live. It was at one of those CD stores that used to have listening stations where people could listen to music before they bought it. It was probably 1993 or so (Read more…)
It came from the nineties (Vol. 52)
I’ve gotten a bunch of requests to keep this feature going so here it is. I can hardly believe that it has been almost 3 months since I last posted some songs from the 90’s. Has it really been that long? It has, but something about the untimely and sudden death of Michael Jackson yesterday (Read more…)
It came from the nineties (Vol. 51)
Just what you needed and wanted for a Tuesday morning, right? Here in Chicago it’s dreary and rainy, but there’s nothing like some music to brighten up your day, plus I told you I’d make good on my promise of not waiting another two months before the next one. Want more, just find “1990’s” in (Read more…)
It came from the nineties (Vol. 50)
Wow, it’s been almost two months since the last episode of “It cam from the 90’s.” Can you believe it? So here, we’ve got that annoying Vengaboys song and Sponge’s “Molly.” Such an underrated band I saw on a few occasions at Metro in the mid 90’s. Then you’ve got some PM Dawn, Ministry, and (Read more…)
It came from the nineties (Vol. 49)
Okay, a few of these songs might be a stretch. The first one, Pavement’s “Cut Your Hair” got a tiny little bit of airplay on the so-called modern rock radio during the 90’s but Pavement isn’t really a band that belongs on the list. And even though “Regret” was released in 1993 and was New (Read more…)
It came from the nineties (vol. 48)
I was talking with a co-worker last week about this series and thought it might be a good time to post another one of these. “The Impression That I Get” is the Bosstones one foray into mainstream exposure but a damn fine song as well. And this series wouldn’t be complete without that awful Divinyls (Read more…)
It came from the nineties (Vol. 47)
After spending a few days in St. Louis visiting my brother and his wife and actually having K’s Choice (featured below) come up during normal conversation, I figured it was again time for another dose of wholesome goodness from the 1990’s. Want more awesome (or not so awesome) songs from the 90’s? Just find “1990’s” (Read more…)
It came from the nineties (Vol. 46)
With all these holiday songs, I haven’t gotten around to posting one of these for what seems like awhile. As a funny aside, when I was much much younger, I actually owned a cassette of Vanilla Ice’s To The Extreme and (gasp!) listened to it! Leave it to kids to be completely unsure of what (Read more…)
It came from the nineties (Vol. 44)
Even though The Cure’s “Friday I’m In Love” was released in 1992, they are a band that (IMHO) just screams of the eighties. It is a song that now makes it unacceptable for any other bands to name off the days of the week in any of their songs as doing so would just yield (Read more…)
