It could be song you never hear any more or one that didnt get enough love the first time around. It can be from a major or a minor star or act and from any genre.

Id probably go with this

Favourite forgotten 90's tune?

...I've forgotten it.

Three Colours Red - Nuclear Holiday

Loved this song, still do. It's was one of the most important songs in my life as it got me into rock music! It's such a shame 3CR never made it as big as they could and should have. When they were finally getting the recognition they deserved they split up. Fair enough, they reformed for a short while, but the stuff they released after reformation didn't have the catchy hooks, the energy, the heart of their old stuff!

As uncool as this guy is, i always heard bits of Soul Asylum in this tune and always had a soft spot for it.

(um, is this video actually showing up for anyone?)

JDee - Jason Dee, I presume. Would you be looking for possible tunes for selection on the forthcoming temporary-licenced station 90s Network? I see that you are involved in the station. No harm in that.

From the recesses of my memories:
I like to Move It - Reel2Reel
Barrel of A Gun - Depeche Mode
Another Night Another Dream - The Real McCoy
Rhythm of The Night - Corona
Are You Ready to Flow - Nikolai
San Trancisco - Punchenella
World in Motion - New Order and England World Cup Squad
Rocks - Primal Scream
Becoming More Like Alfie - The Divine Comedy
Getting Away With It - Electronic
The Patience of a Saint - Electronic
Get the Message - Electronic
Heart Shaped Box - Nirvana
Being Boring - The Pet Shop Boys

... I know there's more but I can't remember them, including loads of more rock-oriented tunes. Funny what I did remember!

This always reminds me of falling around London in summer '96. What a scorcher.

I don't mind covers but Tin tin out was nowhere near as good as The Sundays original version. Sounds like a plastic version. Maybe thats just me :pac::pac:

Da Funky Munky · 19-10-2008 02:56AM

Re; The Sundays version, I would have to disagree and say the cover version is better

Thats not going to be a popular statement but there you have it.

The only credible song Rick Astley ever done below, and a 90's one too
