    Third Eye Blind ; Jumper is one of my all-time fave songs

    Ash ; one of my noms

    Weezer ; one of my noms

    Abstain from last one for now, not familiar enough with either.

    Please. Abstain on the other two

    I thought this was best act of the 90s...what are Aerosmith and Beastie Boys doing here?

    How on earth has Will Smith gotten through?

    Where is Lauryn Hill?


    This is off to a terrible start.

    I have a passionate dislike for Ash. Weirdly irrational as their music doesn't annoy me in the way say Sinead O Connor does.....

    But I don't know the crew they're up against tbh so can't even spite vote!

    Where's me Jumper was their hit single, would have been on the radio a lot.

    Aerosmith had a string of 90s hits and if you wanted Miss Hill here, you should have nominated her.

    There will be plenty of more familiar acts to come. :)

    I don’t know the others. Well, I know weezer but not who they’re up against.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,367 ✭✭✭✭Electric Nitwit


    Perhaps Lauren Hill's one album and four singles that decade weren't enough

    One of the greatest albums of all time.

    Abstaining from the rest, either don't know them enough or don't like them.

    Had a quick listen to both Eels and Kyuss, and I'll throw a vote on Eels

    Don't know enough about the first two.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,145 ✭✭✭Irish Aris


    wow, I feel very out of touch. With the exception of Weezer, I am not sure I know a single song from the rest of the artists.

    I'll vote for Weezer so, I kind of liked the Buddy Holly song back in the day.
