"1999" - pop song by Charli XCX

[charge282]

Got to laugh at this one. Lyrics: "I just wanna go back, back to 1999,
take a ride to my old neighbourhood."

Charli XCX was seven in 1999 and she's from Bishop's Stortford. Hardly rock 'n' roll is it.

Bryan Adams was 9 years old in the summer of 69. What of it?

I don't think the summer of 69 is referring to the date

I’m more offended by the “go back” to 1999.

I still think anything from 1997 onwards is current.

Well she says she wants to go back to being a teenager young and carefree. So it was bishops stortford... and? It’s not supposed to be rock and roll. It’s nostalgic!

Schnickers he has made references to it being both about sex and about the year... So you are right, but the year is relevant too..
