Levis Posted February 16, 2008 Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 You obviously got that list from me I'm so cool Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farin Posted February 16, 2008 Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 obviously maybe I should've included Die Da ~ Fanta4 the very first popular german hip hop song and Schrei Nach Liebe ~ Die Ärzte important for several reasons: maybe the reunion of the decade the first politcal song from a principally unpolitical band (in their songs, not in their additude) and a song like this was really needed in the time it came out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skybluesky Posted February 16, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 I don't remember much about the whole of 1993, for my year went as such- January to May-high school senior, miserable by virtue of being a high school senior, too busy listening to The Doors and REM to pay much attention to anything August to December-college freshman, so, basically too drunk to pay attention to anything.

c_s_1987 Posted February 17, 2008 Report Share Posted February 17, 2008 Reap What You Sow - Powderfinger (released before their debut album - I doubt that you'd be able to find it. ) More great Australian songs from 1993 that you probably have never heard before: The Honeymoon Is Over - The Cruel Sea The Ship Song - Nick Cave Holy Grail - Hunters And Collectors Also, according to Wikipedia: Soul To Squeeze - RHCP A**hole - Denis Leary Killing In The Name - Rage Against The Machine Man On The Moon - REM Nightswimming - REM Plush - Stone Temple Pilots Constant Craving - k. d. lang Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elvish Posted February 18, 2008 Report Share Posted February 18, 2008 Feed the Tree ~ Belly Hey, Jealousy ~ Gin Blossoms I'm Gonna Be (500 Miles) ~ The Proclaimers I'd Die Without You ~ PM Dawn Spin Doctor's had some hits w/Little Miss Can't Be Wrong, Two Princes, and Jimmy Olsen's Blues. Janet Jackson released janet - which was awesome. And Eric Clapton's Unplugged was great as well. Did someone already mention Whoop! There It Is? Possibly the most overplayed song that year. And I'll refrain from mentioning Garth and Reba You've brought back some memories of high school for me, c-girl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carl Posted February 18, 2008 Report Share Posted February 18, 2008 I was doing Top-40 radio in '93, and there will never be another year like it. Here are the #1 songs of that year, complete with my commentary: "A Whole New World" - Peabo and Regina Disney was at it's peak before that pesky 3D annimation blew it away. This was from Aladdin. "Informer" - Snow A white Reggae rapper. "Freak Me" - Silk R&B was in a raunchy phase, and one hit wonders were abundant. "That's The Way Love Goes" - Janet Jackson Janet and Michael both made some poor career decisions from here on out. "Weak" - SWV Girl group R&B also big from 1992-1995. "Can't Help Falling In Love" - UB40 Harmless and familiar, it got a ton of airplay. "Dreamlover" - Mariah Carey A delightful little song while Mariah was still pure Pop. Note that Mariah doesn't dance in her videos. In this one, she frolicks in a meadow wearing Daisy Dukes. That didn't suck. "I'd Do Anything For Love" - Meat Loaf Big comeback song for Meat. Anything was possible once Clinton took office. "Again" - Janet Jackson Star power and good marketing. Not one to remember. "Hero" - Mariah Carey Mariah at her schlockiest.

skybluesky Posted February 18, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 18, 2008 (edited) I'm finding out 1993 was not the choicest year for music {Joey Lawrence Sings! A Canadian white boy raps in an unintelligible Jamaican accent!} I was mainly looking for songs I didn't already have in one format or another,but I've come up with a pretty good CD I think. I'm going with Are You Gonna Go My Way~Lenny Kravitz Boom! Shake the Room-DJ Jazzy Jeff and the Fresh Prince * Creep-Radiohead Dream All Day~The Posies Feed the Tree-Belly Hip Hop Hooray-Naughty By Nature Human Behaviour-Bjork Informer~Snow Insane in the Brain~Cypress Hill It Was a Good Day-Ice Cube Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm-Crash Test Dummies Ordinary World-Duran Duran Rape Me-Nirvana She Don't Use Jelly-The Flaming Lips Shoop-Salt N Pepa Today-Smashing Pumpkins What Is Love-Haddaway Whoomp! (There It Is)-Tag Team * should be left off because Will Smith is now a member of a crazy alien worship cult Scientologist Edited February 19, 2008 by Guest Upon closer examination, not all songs were from 1993, and I left some songs off the list by mistake Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tenacious_Peaches Posted February 18, 2008 Report Share Posted February 18, 2008 That, my beautiful friend, is one kick @ss CD. I bow to your skills as a nostalgic DJ. Hey, I might make a 1987 CD to celebrate my year of graduation! Once again, you inspire me, C-girl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
