    For some reason when my little sister was about 5-6 years old she was obsessed with 'No Rain'- she was way too young to understand it was a more sad/somber song but she just thought it was catchy so she'd get all excited whenever it came on. When I've asked her if she remembers how much she loved it now she has no clue what I'm talking about but the song has a spot in my heart having such a funny memory from when she was little 😂

    Started the 90's in NYC (finishing college). Then went back to my hometown of Boston for a while, followed by a move to the Berkshires (western MA). Mid 90's was grad school in San Diego, and I finished out the decade in L.A. Each of these songs reminds me of a different city.

    The only decade better than the '80s was the '90s. I was old enough to drink and party it up all night. "Jump" and "Whoomp There It Is" were unifying forces at the club, where everybody moved as one organism. One tune that could have made this list was "James Brown is Dead," which was about as played to death at the dance clubs as "What's Going On?" was at grunge bars.

Believe it or not, the album itself as a whole is really really good. One of my all time faves. If you listen to How Bizarre, then the track before it, you'll get the answer to How Bizarre when they say ''want to know the rest, by the rights how bizarre''
