April 8, 201114 yr Yay, I'm quite happy with that - and ATCQ didn't finish last behind that rubbish GNR do Wings cover. So, for 1992. There are loads I'd nominate for myself but they wouldn't be considered classics. So, how's about some of these? Some are maybe a bit dancy. House of Pain - 'Jump Around' - this has to be nominated, it went on to become far more popular than it ever was when first released. Blur - 'Popscene' - their great 'lost' single SL2 - 'On a Ragga Tip' - still hugely popular L7 - 'Pretend We're Dead' Liquid - 'Sweet Harmony' Ugly Kid Joe - 'Everything About You' - well, it was popular in its day Future Sound of London - 'Papua New Guinea' The Cure - 'Friday I'm in Love' Gat Decor - 'Passion' Suede - 'Metal Mickey' The Lemonheads - 'Mrs Robinson / Being Around' The Shamen - 'Ebenezer Goode' The Prodigy - 'Out of Space' Edited April 8, 201114 yr by richie
April 8, 201114 yr If Griffo sticks with the 1001 albums… theme then Popscene won't count as it was never on an album :(
April 8, 201114 yr here are some suggestions: REM- Everybody Hurts (I know this was 1993, but I still think its more of a classic than anything else from that album) Rage Against The Machine- Killing In The Name Manic Street Preacers- Motorcycle Emptiness Eric Clapton- Tears In Heaven Nirvana- Come as You Are/In Bloom The Prodigy- Everybody In The Place this site is pretty useful: http://www.besteveralbums.com/index.php obviously think about the number 1s of that year too etc.
April 8, 201114 yr I don't have any for 92' but Chemical Brothers "Hey Boy Hey Girl" HAS to be one for 1999, I heard it on the radio this morning and remembered what a classic it was. It went to number 3 so it sadly will be missing out on my game :(
