    Guns 'n' Roses - November Rain. I don't know the other song off the top of my head.

    Shania Twain - That Don't Impress Me Much. Again, off the top of my head, I don't know the other song.

    Crowed House - Weather With You. Again, same issue!

    Sting - If I ever etc. Not too mad about the other song.

    Guns N' Roses - November Rain

    I love The Bluetones but If isn't their best, and Weather With You is a classic

    Because it's hard to get by, when your arşe is the size, of a small country

    Is that Courtney Love?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,503 ✭✭✭✭Also Starring LeVar Burton


    Is that Courtney Love?

    Yes. Hole is her band, and they have some great songs.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 13,420 ✭✭✭✭Electric Nitwit


    When I play one of these my speaker then plays more random 90s and I'm remembering more and more I didn't nominate, it's driving me crazy!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,768 ✭✭✭Declan A Walsh


    Is that Courtney Love?

    Hole is her band, but I'm not really familiar with their stuff. I would know her husband Kurt Cobain's band Nirvana from that decade much better.
