Wikipedia says there's an even more dirty version

Wow, to quote Karl Marx,

poorpete

For me this was a musical touchtone, and I can hear the influence on a lot my own stuff. Heart on your sleeve, capo on fret two. Better than most of the popular pop rock songs of the era.

poorpete

Ok. Shoop!

poorpete

Shut it down, congrats Flame!

In four tourneys so far, no women have made it to the semifinals. Now, in the quarterfinals of 1953, it's almost assured there will be 1, there's a 50/50 chance there will be 2, and there's a unlikely but not 0% chance there will be 3. Exciting! https://twitter.com/justrewarding/status/1382734635394...

Memorable video, and although I only vaguely remembered the song, but it's very good!

poorpete

Very 80s until the chorus which has the campfire singalong hook that kills (in both positive and negative ways)

poorpete

Dunno if I've heard this one. A mix of doowop and rap and it kinda worked!

poorpete

So good. I'm probably wrong, but is this the last huge blues song?

poorpete

Dang, I've been like, how could she have scored as many hits as The Beatles? Well, she's just a constant yearly hit machine!

poorpete

Yup, it's official, 1996 must have been when I left top 40 radio for the alternative, classic rock, and oldies stations. I don't remember this song.

poorpete

I grew up unappreciative of her impressive vocal tracks, but still kinda unimpressed with the accompanying track, which says nothing more to me than "slow dance to this."

poorpete

So, maybe proof that my coming thaw in hit recognizing is coming. This was one of the biggest hits of all time, it's very good, but I vaguely remember it. Though this exercise I've better understood the success of Mariah Carey and how she's the most successful solo act of all time. Yeah, she's got a...

poorpete

Yay for a non-English language song being popular! Otherwise, agreed, "Oof."

poorpete

Pretty solid year. Starting next year I went all-in on The Beatles and began playing guitar, so I wonder how much I'll recognize. My guess is: still most.

I loved the snowplow puns, and I'm glad it wasn't just me because of my Syracuse bias

poorpete

Wait, there's a non-dirty version of this song? TLC owned '95, damn.

poorpete

1995 is dominated by POC-leads in many different genres, "I Believe" being pure piano ballad pop.

poorpete

I said I don't want to hear them multiple times in one day and I meant it.

poorpete

I loved the Zaltzman/Oliver Bugle days. Do you know they reunited for a show in December? Had the same magic.

I like braggadocio in moderation
Otherwise I go loco, get aggravatin'
But I don't wanna be mean, no, don't be hatin'
Like me this deserves all its adoration.

poorpete

I don't want to hear it multiple times a day for over a year, but once in a while, this song is more than welcome to my ear holes. It's great

poorpete

It made me laugh

poorpete

Same! Dunno if I knew she was behind Arrested Development's Tennessee too. I may need to deep dive her stuff at some point.

poorpete

Wow, she outperformed Brandy! Let the decades long friendly rivalry begin!

poorpete

I think I was searching for a trick that wasn't there

poorpete

Are the three numbers.... 50 49 1 assuming that they are part of Cory's family and thus the three people are Cory, the mom, and the son. The 2450 gets him some info, and the double his age gets him the three numbers. Then the final gets the information the Cory is younger than the mom. Which makes t...

poorpete

Again she gets it totally right, putting the whistle register first. Then instead for the climax she sings from "Genius of Love" pretty much telling the haters (like my teenage self) "Yeah, I know who I'm sampling, I know exactly what I'm doing." And of course there's the landmar...

poorpete

Honestly didn't realize all these house bands were white European guys with for-hire black women leads, figured they were all part of the American R&B landscape.

poorpete

I think that's the right tact.

That's it! Please, Phoebe, give them a pig!

Ahhh, fantastic trivia!

poorpete

16 songs remain, and they are all pretty good to great. That said, I have clear rooting interests, and was a bit grumpy at some of the early results. Things looks a tad better now, but not yet optimistic... https://twitter.com/justrewarding/status/1381587873674235907 I like Istanbul, but if it wins ...

Wooo!
Crazy 10/10
Sexy 10/10
Cool 10/10

You mean TBoz Left-eye and Chilli?

this is a foundational factoid for kids my age. Asked my wife and she also rattled it off.

poorpete

There they are! Saw TLC on the 1994 acclaim lists and knew they had to be coming soon.

Crazy 2/10 pretty not crazy
Sexy 7/10 could be more sexy but sexy enough for the content.
Cool 10/10

poorpete

Surprisingly low for All I Wanna Do surprisingly high for MmmMmMmMMmmMmmm

poorpete

Except for the big drums and guitar solo, this is hardly grunge.

poorpete

Not grunge

poorpete

Hey! Some call this dismissively "post grunge," (jeepers it was recorded just a year after grunge hit the mainstream) probably because it's not self-loathing, but when it came out it was just another flavor of grunge. Sludgy guitars and flannel. Counting it.

We did it!

poorpete

I thought we were finishing up so I thought I'd check out Acclaimed Music's list of best of 1994 and see if there were any matches, 22. Regulate 46. Stay And on Rate Your Music 24. Regulate Some I'm surprised isn't on this list but there's one artist in particular that has a few HUGE hits from '94 t...

poorpete

Classic.

Not sure what #30 is going to be but I'm sure it's not the song I most associate with 1994

poorpete

We need more Doo Wop covers by vocal groups. And an Ink Spots Top & Bottom too!

poorpete

Nope. Forgiveness not granted.

poorpete

Never noticed the vocal similarity between him and Tracy Chapman. Noted.
