Title: 90's Music
Post by: Yoshi on November 29, 2006, 09:15:47
Watching VH1 Classic at the moment and the 90's at 9 show.  They just played Blondie - Maria, does anyone else think that Debbie Harry's voice got so much better by that point?  Its just a shame they only really had the 1 hit that late in the day as with that newer voice she should have done so much better!

Oh no, the 90s are becoming retro chic, and I was feeling too old the first time around.

Next thing will be the 70s revival revival.

I know, I posted a link to a Steve Earle video (from 'YouTube') for someone on another forum (OLLR) & the difference in his appearance between then & now :shock:
I remember seeing him when he looked like that  on the promotional tour for his 2nd album'Exit 0' (1987?)

Yes, she was a rather attractive young lady (still is, if a few years older)

Babooshka (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VKMSEWVQ3PI)

CloudBusting (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qO8zr31R0c8) (got to agree with the comments, it's a wonderful song & video)

And more modern; King Of The Mountain (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S4qu-DKi_30)

Coming (fairly) up to date, one of the most distinctive female voices in music must be Cerys Matthews (of Catatonia)


Road Rage (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZVAbHz9gVBg) (it's the way she phrases 'road-rage' :(biglove): )

Mulder & Scully (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mcQFVhJbQTg)

But for good voices with great music then there is 2 who spring to mind more, P j Harvey, her brand of weird music is fantastic, and of course the very underrated Lisa Marie Presley, only like the "To Whom It May Concern" album, although the new one "Now What" is looking just as good as its predeccessor (i cant spell) although anything before to whom it may concern sucked eggs lol

She's the young lady from the group 'Altered Images', & the film, 'Gregorys Girl'

How about for 90's ladies;


 Siouxsie Sioux (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1eyCh5PGP_8&mode=related&search=)??
There was always a certain 'something' about her, but  at certain points in her career if you look closely, her facial features scarily resembled Cherie Blair :(scared):


'Echo Beach' (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CyzsBqk8u1w)


'What's Up?' (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LiDpMfEeo3Q) (I remember the first time I ever heard this, I was just about to cross the Tamar (road) bridge.



Question.
Is this thread mainly sticking to rock/pop (for want of a better expression) or is it just 90's ladies???
If not here's a few more contributions :wink:

Liz Fraser of This Mortal Coil (an offshoot of the Cocteau Twins)'Song to The Siren' (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4NH0LLU2tP4)


80's Ladies (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1ETlEzcst5A) (sorry wrong decade :oops: Got this as a single downstairs :wink: )


Any Man Of Mine (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gWbqx9wV55E) (thankfully, pre-Leopardskin, etc.... & all the better for it)

Siouxsie Sioux, 90s?  I have "Cities in Dust" by Siouxsie and the Banshees on Now 6, which I got for my tenth birthday back in 1986, and I thought that was quite a way through her career already.  Haven't really been aware of her nearly so much since the 80s.

Nah, 90s music to me is epitomised by "There's No Limit" by 2 Unlimited.  Yeah, I think music went through a bit of a bad patch in the early 90s.  :shock:

Ooo I remember seeing Kate Bush in Manchester - superb (showing age).

I must admit,  after seeing the live concert link you put on earlier we had a big discussion at work regarding DHarrys age and was surprised she was so old. Also if you google Debbie Harry there is one site saying "Naked Pics " - well, we had to look, better with her clothes on!

With Babooshka meaning something akin to Grandmother, or Old Woman, she would have really thanked you for that.

Sorry wrong era :oops:

I was thinking of the Goth era, rather that her original Punk days.
She was still the style-setter for all the Goth-girls

Spikey hair, leather, lace, fish-nets, high-heels, lots of black make-up.
Most of the girls dressed the same as well :lol:  :lol:

it was the time of bands like
Sisters Of Mercy (ooh........ Patricia Morrison :D )
Southern Death Cult, aka; Death Cult, The Cult (BillyDuffys Gretsch White Falcon)
Alien Sex Fiend
X-Mal Deutschland
etc.......


Spear Of Destiny (great live)


Plus the rockabilly/punkabilly, which was my genre :wink: ;
King Kurt (very messy live :lol: )
The Meteors

Stray Cats (great live, with a fantastic guitarist - Brian Setzer)
Restless (as good as the Cats live)
Dave Philps & The Hot-Rod Gang
The Cramps (just ..... weird)

The cramps rock!!!  If you like rockabilly and stuff, especially The Brian Setzer Orchestra or Brian Setzers 68 Comeback Special then log onto http://www.totalrock.com and listen in on a thursday night between 9pm and midnight.  Loads of weird stuff like the cramps, the meteors, reverend horton heat and of course Brian Setzer.  But then if you like Brian Setzer then maybe you should listen out for the Cherry Poppin Daddies???

I tend to think of the 90's as the era of Club & Rave Music...or maybe it's just a sign of my mis-spent youth!

Either way my Ipod is fast filling with my favourite 90's tracks such as:

2 Bad Mice - Bomb Scare (Sasha & Digweed mix)
Snap - Rhythm Is A Dancer
A Guy Called Gerald- Voodo Ray
Atlantic Ocean - Waterfall
Blue Pearl - Dancing Naked in the Rain
Bucketheads  - The Bomb
CeCe Peniston - Finally
Darude - Sandstorm
DJ Sasha - Expander
Faithless - Insomnia (Moody Mix)
Goodmen - Give It Up (Extended Mix)
Haddaway- Don't Hurt Me 12' Mix
Heller & Farley Project- Ultra Flava (original flava)
Jakkata- Ever So Lonely (original mix)
Jinny - Keep Warm (Alex Party Hot Mix)
Josh Wink- Higher State of Consciousness (Original)
JX- Son Of A Gun
Liquid- Sweet harmony (Artful Dodger remix)
Mory Kante - Yeke Yeke (Hardfloor Remix)
Nightcrawlers - Push The Feeling On (Funky Mix)
Paul Van Dyk - Binary Finary
Pizzaman - Trippin' On Sunshine (Pizzaman Club Mix)
Robin S  -  Show Me Love
Sash! - Encore Une Fois (Future Breeze Mix)
Shamen - Boss Drum (the Beatmaster mix)
Sneaker Pimps - Spin Spin Sugar (Armand Van Helden's Speed Garage Mix)
Tori Amos - professional widow (armand van helden remix)
Urban Cookie Collective - The Key,The Secret (Club Mix)

To borrow a phrase "Now That's What I Call 90's"- any suggestions for other essential tracks?
