One Hit Wonders of the Ninties
Who doesn't love to hear their favourite songs of years ago? Yes some of them we hear and wonder what the hell we were thinking, but most bring back some awesome memories. I recently read a review from someone who heard Harvey Danger's Flagpole Citta. Totally awesome song... but then this person went on to critique the Divynls Touch Myself, and Chumbawumba's Tubthumping. I mean who doesn't go back to where ever they were when they first heard one of these. For Flagpole Cita I was with friends at Playland chillin on a hot summer day on the Wave Singer. Who doesn't hear the songs and think, really how paranoid is Harvey Danger, what part of herself is Christina touching now, and what the hell does Tubthumping really mean? Crappy songs or not everyone still has something to say about them. Personally I am a fan of crappy, cheesy 80s and 90s one hit wonders.
