Going Commando Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 Collective Soul - The World I Know (1995) Collective Soul had a good run there in the middle of the decade. Some others that held up really well: The Breeders - Cannon Ball (1993) Smashing Pumpkins - 1979 (1995) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eePRkP1HMYQ Neutral Milk Hotel - In The Aeroplane Over The Sea (1998) Weezer - Pink Triangle (1996) Third Eye Blind - Thanks a Lot (1997) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kKvWVyGKIKk Man I loved that album. Still listen to it every once in a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going Commando Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 Bittersweet Symphony and its video kind of came out of left field for pop music. Just really iconic and conspicuously good in a time when a lot of pop music was very shallow, formulaic, and banal. Speaking of which, here's a great song alluding to that very situation: Blues Traveler - Hook (1994) Pachelbel's Canon in D got a lot of burn in particular in 90s. Some other instances of its use, - Green Day - Basket Case (1994) (the chord progression) - Vitamin C - Graduation Friends Forever (1999) - Tupac - Life Goes On (1995) - Coolio - C U When U Get THere (1997) He just sampled the thing directly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do like that song though. I also like "Shake it Fast" by Mystical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibbs Hog Heaven Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 Back in the early 90's, when a young GHH was E'd off his head clubbing and dancing all night like a maniac, these were some of our favourites: Hail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gibbs Hog Heaven Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 Some local talent in the 90's: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=boPhDRug_SQ Strictly late 80's, but a top song that they remixed in '90 ao it counts ha ha- And just because he's an absolute living LEG-END, there's another Beatle on it; and I like some of the shots of the City: Hail.

grego Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 I love smashing pumpkins 'Siamese dream' but nothing after that by them. forget the fact that he's gyrating around like billy squire in 'rock me tonite'. its just a great song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morneblade Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 Well, the 90's for me musically were a desert, certainly the mainstream stuff was devoid of talent. But underneath of it all in the underground, there was a lot of amazing stuff. Most had been pushed there by the dumbing down of music in general. But they managed to survive.

mistertim Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 A few off the top of my head. Pantera. Nuff said. Love this one by PJ Harvey and Nick Cave. I miss 90s hip hop. There was some great stuff. And my favorite Nirvana song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'Ocean Rain' was the first album I ever bought. after being blown away by a song off their next album, 'Bring on the Dancing Horses.' It was just different from the keyboard driven early 80's hits ya' know? Strings, layered yet simple lyrics. Love McCulloch. Macs a genius. But like Wylie, I don't think he's ever realised just how good he is as he's never really wanted the attention. Just two totally unpretentious, down-to-Earth yet highly talented, very savvy (in all forms when it comes to Wiley, not least politically) Liverpool lads. As for the 'Verve', IMHO, Richard Ashcroft is up there with Noel Gallagher and anyone else you care to mention as the best song writer to come out of Britain in the last 20/30 years. The dudes a genius and doesn't get the recognition he truly deserves in many quarters. Seriously, how the hell have you guys not put any ska up yet? I am dissapoint. Ask and ye shall receive. Not much new stuff from the nutty boys in the '90's, but when they did return, this was Madness doing what only Madness can do ..... Hail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gibbs Hog Heaven Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 I hate Pulp. I hat Jarvis ****er. So this goes against the thread theme somewhat. But this is a GREAT song that is a defining anthem for the decade and the class divide. The ultimate Brit Pop anthem. When we do music well, nobody does it better. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lWaHnlt2I3U Hail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
