Combining an incoherent tale of mid-life crisis with adenoidal Elvis Costello-vocals and a latin lilt, Fastball created a charming ditty that even the greatest McG video to date could not overshadow.

a proud declaration of monogamous love (admirably released immediately after his marriage with Whitney Houston - see "My Name Is Not Susan," no. 76), anyone who doesn't appreciate the mixture of raw sensuality and dynamic club-bangin' energy is a fatuous ass-monkey who is missing out on some serious new jack SCHWANG Alex In NYC

Awesome 90s hits that will never make it: ...
Bone-Thugs N' Harmony - "Tha Crossroads"
I just nominated that one, before reading this thread. In my opinion it's the best rap ballad evah, and one of *the* songs of the nineties.
