Posted: 10/16/06 at 8:21pmI actually liked "Ray Of Light," too. The only Madonna album I've ever liked, actually. (Entirely due to William Orbit's brilliant producing!)

Ah NOW I get it.
I was beginning to wonder about you.

They say music evokes memories and emotions, right, Rathy?
And these were some... good memories.
And Erika, God love you for trying. You stayed in there and searched far and wide for some good. That's what I like about you best!

The first time I ever put in my Ray of Light CD was right before bed so I had the lights off, the whole deal. I turned it on and the beginning freaked me out so I shut it off.
I love seeing CDs I own/have owned in this thread, though.

A bit more obscure:
But then there was: 
I remember warming up in dance class to the Jock Jams CDs...my friend and I owned all of them and listened to them nonstop.

I definitely still listen to Coolio. "Fantastic Voyage," "1, 2, 3, 4, Get Your Woman on the Floor," "Gangsta's Paradise"...it's good stuff.
As for late 90s, I thought these guys were too funny.

I LOVE 2Ge+her! I still have both their CDs, and have been trying relentlessly to find a copy of the movie somewhere. I think I liked Chad, if I remember correctly. His crying got to me.
"1, 2, 3, 4, Get Your Woman on the Floor" is possibly one of the best hip-hop mantras of all time. I adore it.

I do love 90s pop. Oh the nostalgia. It brings me back to my preteen years and that was when I first started listening to something other than what my mother put on in the car.
I was a big Spice Girls junkie myself.

Oh, 2GE+HER! I have their second cd, the MTV movie, and a VHS tape of a bunch of the tv episodes from when they ran on MTV. My favorites were Chad and Mickey. I remember I cried a river when Michael Cuccione died. 
I can't believe these albums haven't come up in the thread yet:
I was such a 90s pop fan...and I too love getting those cd's out once in awhile and just traveling back to a simpler time.
Of course, now that I love Sondheim lyrics such as "Email my heart and say our love will never die" don't quite hold the same poignancy that they once did

There was a point in time when I could name 30 boybands... sad, but true. The Backstreet Boys' Millenium is still one of my favorite albums. Don't judge me, I was 15 when that came out. :-X In short, I LOVE late 90's pop.

Kitz! You own the movie? Care to PM me *wink wink, nudge nudge*?
Anyway, The Boy Is Mine was my JAM back in the day. My friends and I used to re-enact Say What? Karaoke, and we would always have duets at the end. My friend Erin and I rocked that song.

I adore 90's and 80's pop...
I just recently watched "Spiceworld", and I adore all of that stuff.
I definitely have been listening to "Britney Spears Greatest Hits", N'Sync, BSB, and old school madonna. I love it all!

Going on Say What? Karaoke was my DREAM! I had my routine to "Genie in a Bottle" all planned and ready to go
I can't believe that the 2GE+HER movie is going for $41+ on Amazon...on VHS! I got the DVD at Borders years ago for about half that price.
Speaking of 90s music, I just bought a CD from Amazon for $.01 plus $4 shipping and handling. Not bad, eh?

MMMBOP! The only boy band I loved
But 90s pop doesn't have to just refer to the Backstreet Boys, britney spears types right? Anything popular in the 90s. Which refers to a lot of **** I loved!
Mariah Carey (especially early 90's), Boyz II Men, No Doubt, Savage Garden, Wallflowers, Gin Blossoms, Third Eye Blind, Sheryl Crow, Oasis, Hootie...
That was some good sh*t.

That Britney Spears album is one of those I own, but would rather not tell people that I do. Although I remember at our middle school dance they had a little Say What? Karaoke and some girls tried to do "Crazy" but didn't know the album version so they stood around during that other part not knowing what to do. I laughed.
And "The Boy is Mine" is STILL my jam. It comes up on my iPod or iTunes probably at least every 2 weeks.
#42re: 90's Pop
Posted: 10/17/06 at 9:13amI *ADORE* Gin Blossoms. And Hootie and the Blowfish, especially. I still listen to their old albums.

The original intent of this thread was suger late 90's pop, but if you want to just post 90's music in all (no matter what genre), be my guest.

Hey, there's nothing wrong with the candy-coated pop of the late 90s (although I'm a big Third Eye Blind fan myself and The Wallflowers' "One Headlight" was my favorite song for a very long time). As proof, I'm currently listening to:
"He Loves You Not"

I don't think it's really gone away.
For my middle school general music I have the kids journal on a musical selection weekly to start developing a vocabulary to discuss music and also to expose them to some genres they may not have experienced before. We alternate between me bringing in selections and them bringing in selections. The last few weeks they've brought in crap like Who Let the Dogs Out (seriously....they had to have been barely out of diapers when that piece of crap came out), I've also had kids bring Britney Spears and N*Sync and today a girl brought in 98 Degrees. The only really good selection a kid has brought in so far was Into the Ocean by Blue October.
And then I try and bring in something I know they haven't heard but is genre similiar (Matt Caplan) and they bitch in their journals that they don't like it cause it's too sad.
