Message Bookmarked

Bookmark Removed

Ok, I'm gonna try one of these myself.

This is NOT a Worst Singles Of The '90s poll. These should be singles that BEGUILE, that fascinate, that are inexplicable, weird, lovable, snuggleable, that are OMGWTFLOL not EWWWWW.

Everybody gets two nominations each. And they have to be singles.

I'll take door number two please.

― Kim (Kim), Sunday, 29 August 2004 22:09 (twenty years ago)

well which of the other two are you getting rid of? Y'all makin' this harder than necessary. I'm trying to scientifically deduce what song from the '90s busts the most guts here.

― CeCe Peniston (Anthony Miccio), Sunday, 29 August 2004 22:10 (twenty years ago)

Well since Tag Team his inexplicably been disputed to be a surprising top pick, I suppose I'll jettison that one.

― Kim (Kim), Sunday, 29 August 2004 22:13 (twenty years ago)

― daavid (daavid), Sunday, 29 August 2004 22:19 (twenty years ago)

"Rump Shaker" is classic. But I could never imagine it on a list of ILM seriousness, plus it's not so uncool its cool... yet. Then again I may be wrong. The 90's have made their way into the upswing of the VH1 cycle.

It's amazing that the network has gotten into the business of retro-fad-ism. The cycle goes something like this:
1. I love that song.
2. It's been overplayed and everybody loves it, so now I hate it.
3. I hate that song and I can't believe anybody every liked it in the first place.
4. Wait, everybody hates that song, and I used to love it. I love it again.
4. Go back to 2.

― Mike Salmo (salmo), Sunday, 29 August 2004 23:54 (twenty years ago)

DC Talk- "Jesus Freak"

― herbert hebert (herbert hebert), Wednesday, 1 September 2004 17:33 (twenty years ago)

311 - Down
Snow - Informer

― jake b. (cerybut), Wednesday, 1 September 2004 18:03 (twenty years ago)

Jesus Christ, how could I have forgotten DC Talk, the Glass Joe of hip-hop? Although I'd personally go for their collaboration with Carman, "Addicted to Jesus," which begins with a dialogue sequence that makes Amos 'n Andy sound positively urbane. Listen here if you must, but don't go around saying I didn't warn you.

Come to think of it, at least a solid third of Carman's 2-CD hits collection would beat any nomination on this least, including my own. But then again, he's got the best gimmick.

― Jesse Fuchs (Jesse Fuchs), Wednesday, 1 September 2004 18:13 (twenty years ago)

311 - Down
Snow - Informer

Wow, my band covered a medley of those 2 songs.

alba, your choices imply you understand this thing plenty

I'm not entirely sure I want to snuggle these two songs though.

― Shakey Mo Collier, Thursday, 2 September 2004 23:34 (twenty years ago)

― Kim (Kim), Friday, 3 September 2004 01:13 (twenty years ago)

Dammit, now I have the Crash Test's refrain in my head.
