Any one else with a favourite song from the nineties that no one else remembers?

[Specksofwhiteallaround]

Mine is Operaa House by Malcolm McLaren. I spent many a happy hour being driven through New Zealand as a kid torturing my parents by singing along to this and Aria on Air but no one I’ve meet seems to know of it. Still absolutely adore it as an adult but sadly no better at singing it.

Hold on my Heart by Phil Collins, gorgeous song and always played on Atlantic 252

You just reminded me. Only in the last fortnight have I first heard the B side to that song (from a Russian youtuber whose live videos I watch as he plays songs while travelling around Rissian cities). Was blown away. Immediately googled the details and see it now features on their greatest hits albums.

Cornell's voice is immaculate. Anyone who hasn't heard this (Yellow Ledbetter) I urge you to. It's that good.

That’s because it only reached no60 in the uk charts!

@Wantmyoldlifeback I’m 48.

All around the world - Lisa Stansfield

Soundtracks also featured heavily...Reality Bites, empire records, shooting fish!

I sort of did the opposite and fell in love with dance/trance etc when I moved to the uk. Never met anyone who’d heard of Merril Bainbridge in the uk though, wonder if maybe she just wasn’t as popular in this side of the world.

Runaway Train - Soul Asylum
Replica - Fear Factory

Peter Kay's car share 😁😁😁😁😁

Chok there
Everyday people
Boom shake the room

It’s a great song isn’t it? One of my all time favourites.
“Never was a cornflake girl
Thought it was a good solution
hanging with the raisin girls
Shes gone to the other side
Giving us the yo heave ho
Things are getting kind of gross
And I go at sleepy time…

This is not really, this is, this, this, this is not really happening…
You bet your life it is”

A song that came about after Tori Amos had a discussion with a friend about FGM and that it, more often than not, was someone very trusted who carried out this procedure. Hence the cornflake girl- someone who pretends to be your friend and then hurts you. Very powerful song.

Do you mean their 90s era (Regret etc) or their 80s era when 1963 originally came out?

Tonight, today and always! 😆

Wow, thanks for sharing ❤️

*fuck, getting my lead singers mixed up. Eddie Vedder is Pearl Jam of course.

I bought her cassette in a shop in the mall near camp and thought it was the coolest thing I'd ever owned. $3.95!
Also Jann Arden.
I went right back to clubbing when I came back here, but still absolutely love all that type of stuff

Love Walking Down Madison! Ah, dear Kirsty ❤️

Just played it my play list is getting bigger as I keep seeing songs I had forgot about lol

Shawn Mullins, Lullaby. It's not even a really great song but I loved it at the time!

And Murcury Rev, Goddess on a Highway. This one is good.

Currently listening to the shooting fish soundtrack, brilliant!

My favourite was Soup dragons- I'm free- Came out just around time I was getting divorced!!!

Crucified - Army of Lovers.
Satellite - The Beloved
Waterfall - Atlantic Ocean
Falling (PM Dawn remix) - Cathy Dennis
Feel - House of Love

What happened to Tony Rich Project - Nobody Knows?

No pun intended. It was my first heartbreak, and I'd cry listening to that song!

Oh I loved Mouth too. Being popular in Australia makes sense as I was in NZ when she was all over the radio. I only ever had her album on cassette (god I feel old) so I’d love to have known what the b side of the single was over there at the time.

Reluctantly crouched at the starting line...
