Good Morning Hive friends! It's Friday, friends, and that means it’s #NinetiesFriday!
Whatever you find yourself wanting to post about is all good! It just has to be Nineties! I’m thinking my posts will be mostly Nineties music talk or album reviews but also movies or TV talk or reviews. Basically no rules, just gotta be Nineties!
And use the tag #NinetiesFriday
I’m hoping this builds into something similar to ThreeTuneTuesday where we have many people involved! But I gotta start with myself so here we go! Similar to TTT, I will give a basic Income Unit to a post every week. If it’s just me and one other person to start, that's cool but Eventually I hope more will get involved and we can grow it.
Some ideas are music, movies, television, sports, or really anything Nineties related. I assume movie or tv or music topic reviews or talk will be most common, but you could also talk a sports memory or something else. Think the Pop Culture of the times, but it would be great to hear about little known and interesting bands or entertainment items. Don’t forget to use tag #NinetiesFriday
This week I’m talking #Music & 1997!
Ten songs that make us think of 1997!
I start by listing five that are favorites of mine personally then go on with big 1997 hits! Also I talk some of the tunes and also get deep into a couple bands that didn’t put out music for 4-6 years and missed a great chance to put out new music in 1997 (or 1998) such as Weezer , No Doubt & Red Hot Chilli Peppers.
🎙️Nineties Friday 5/2/24 AM Vlog 🎙️
1997
Songs That Make Me Think
Of 1997Bands That Should Of Put Out Records
In 1997 or 1998 (Weezer & No Doubt)Deep Cuts
Below are some of the songs I discussed which are the essential 1997 nostalgia picks!
I ended up adding a few extras after I finished recording. 1997 was a good year! A couple were released in 1996 but those picks didn’t get play until summer 97 or so!
Band - Blink 182
Song - Dammit (1997)
Band - Mighty Mighty Bosstones
Song - Impression That I Get (1997)
Band - Everclear
Song - Everything To Everyone (1997)
Band - Third Eye Blond
Song - Semi Charmed Life (1997)
Band - Foo Fighters
Song - Everlong (1997)
Band - Green Day
Song - Time Of Your Life (1997)
Band - The Verve Pipe
Song - Freshmen (1996)
Band - Blur
Song - Song 2 (1997)
Band - Wallflowers
Song - One Headlight (1996)
Band - Matchbox 20
Song - Push (1996)
Band - Sheryl Crow
Song - A Change Would Do You Good
(1996)
Originally I was only going to list five songs not ten or eleven so I won’t make this following part long but I wanted to post a couple bands that didn’t get mainstream play in 1997 that I think should of.
Band - MxPx
Album - Life In General (November 1996)
Two sample tracks ⬇️
This record in my opinion should have have produced a single as big as Blink 182’s Dammit. Not like number one on charts but at least some solid MTV Play & Alternative radio play.
Then one more is ⬇️
Band - Less Than Jake
Album - Loosing Streak (1996)
Two sample tracks ⬇️
Again I don’t see it on the top 5 on pop charts or anything like that, but Less Than Jake also I think should of got more play similar to Mighty Mighty Bosstones & Reel Big Fish did all over MTV & Alternative radio.
I’ll leave it here! 1997 was a packed year! I could talk 50 albums both underground and mainstream but that would take far 2 long! I will see ya’ll next #NinetiesFriday 💿
Eh gotta mention one more! Reel Big Fish 1997 album did some some mainstream play. You might of heard this song on MTV in 1997 ⬇️
Even has a cameo from Goldfinger!
Speaking of Goldfinger! Gotta give them some love! ⬇️
Every week I will pick one post that uses the #NinetiesFriday tag and they will win some Basic income Units!
Last weeks winning post was from @thebighigg 🙌 ⬇️
