This was a good year for the most part for me. After a while I was watching less tv and paying less active attention to music, but this also happened to be the year I decided I needed to spend more time recording myself making fun of the radio because I now had a proper recorder. I have little clips of some of these songs on tape without even knowing what the song/artist was at the time, where I'm making fun of them or otherwise just being an asshole... It's really weird in retrospect.

"100% Pure Love" - Crystal Waters. And here we go with the dance music...

"About a Girl (Unplugged)" - Nirvana. Never watched this show. One of the few Nirvana songs I can go back to without cringing.

"All I Wanna Do" - Sheryl Crow. This song reminds me of sitting on my niece's bed, looking out the window at night, thinking about this guy I had a massive crush on. Amazingly having nothing to do with the song, but... it was popular at that very time. He was super hot.

"Another Night" - M.C. Sar & the Real McCoy. Another dream but always you it's like a vision of love, seems to be true. ARGH.

"Asshole" - Denis Leary. Didn't know this had a video...

"Basket Case" - Green Day. The guy I had a crush on liked Green Day. ^Asshole.

"Big Empty" - Stone Temple Pilots. Takes me right back to my teenage bedroom with one little whiny guitar note.

"Better Man" - Pearl Jam. Ditto.

"Big Poppa" - Notorious B.I.G. All I remember about this video is a hot tub and champagne.

"Black Hole Sun" - Soundgarden. My cousin loved this song, which meant I hated it. Still difficult to listen to though I got over my Soundgarden hatred after a while.

"Come Out and Play" - The Offspring.

"Corduroy" - Pearl Jam. This used to make my heart hurt.

"Closer" - Nine Inch Nails. The first time I heard this song all of the way through, I was 15 sitting in a car waiting for my friend to stop terrorizing people in a parking lot, sitting with someone I'd just met who was probably as embarassed as I was. It was weird. The first time I heard this song at all, though, was this year while dialing through the radio. I can't remember what I said now, but my reaction was very "what the hell is this?" And then it was gone for three years... Maybe I should upload this moment of my life because it's just so fucking off the wall.

"Crazy" - Aerosmith. Alicia, again.

"Gin & Juice" - Snoop Doggy Dogg. "You need to get a jobby job".

"I Alone" - Live. LOL.. Never seen this before. Are they TRYING to be retarded?

"I Like to Move It" - Reel 2 Real. I'm not never not going to see dancing cartoon animals.

"Longview" - Green Day. Because there's not enough songs about masturbation.

"Loser" - Beck. In the time of chimpanzees, I was a monkey...

"Mary Jane's Last Dance" - Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers. I don't know which way to go with this one.

"Rape Me" - Nirvana. I dated a guy once who had never heard this song before. BLASPHEMY! He was probably missing a lot of braincells... but that doesn't negate how I'm still shocked that anyone could miss this song.

"Regulate" - Warren G featuring Nate Dogg.

"Sabotage" - Beastie Boys. This was on every fucking time I turned on the tv to any of the music stations for a month or two. So. fucking. annoying.

"Secret" - Madonna. Because there's not enough songs about masturbation.

"Seether" - Veruca Salt. Didn't care until later... at which point, LEEB ME. LYING HERE.

"Self Esteem" - The Offspring. This song is about my first boyfriend.

"Stay (I Missed You)" - Lisa Loeb. I hate you and your extremely boring video.

"Spoonman" - Soundgarden. Because there's not enough songs about masturbation.

"Tootsee Roll" - 69 Boyz. Oh.. my... god.

"Waterfalls" - TLC. This song was stuck in my head for years... Also known as the best video ever to my 12 year old self.
