From Grunge to Gangsta Rap and everything in between! Post a song and let's talk about it!


Rules

  1. All aspects of the LW TOS apply.
  2. Be constructive and don't gatekeep. Music is highly subjective, and people have different tastes.
  3. If the source is YouTube, use the actual YouTube URL rather than a specific Invidious/Piped link. This prevents dead links as those go on/offline or break due to Google changes while also letting people's browser plugins, Lemmy clients, etc automatically re-write YT links to their preferred instances. Feel free to put alternate links in the post body, though.
  4. Submissions must be from the 90s (1990 - 1999) based on either recorded or release date. e.g. if it was recorded in 1999 but released in 2000, we're not going to split hairs over that; post away. Covers made in the 90s of older music is absolutely allowed and encouraged.

Posting Guidelines / Suggestions

  1. The preferred title format is Artist - Song Name [YEAR]
  2. If a song has a particular meaning or evokes a pleasant memory for you, feel free to share your story with it.

If you have other suggestions that would help grow the community and/or foster discussion, please feel free to share.

One of the first big concerts I went to featured these guys mid-day. It was the only song I knew of theirs at the time, but they won me over as a fan by the end of their set. Grabbed this CD shortly afterwards. Great music video too.

An absolutely seminal band, song, and video in the early days of discovering my own musical tastes. Always wondered why they didn't really take off. They still occasionally add live videos and stuff on their YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/@FastballTheBandOfficial

Just reading the title puts the tune in my head. Perfect!
