Those 90s Songs: Deep Blue Something- Breakfast At Tiffany’s

Back in 1995 there was a song that you absolutely couldn’t escape. It was all over MTV, VH1 and the radio. The song is “Breakfast At Tiffany’s” by Deep Blue Something. Interestingly the song is from their 1993 album, 11th Song but, this song wasn’t released as a single until 1995. The song was so popular that it peaked at number 5 on the Billboard Top 100 and elsewhere across the world, the song would dominate the charts. At the end of the day, it’s one of those catchy 90’s songs that you couldn’t escape and even to this day when it gets mentioned, the song immediately pops in your head. I’m sorry but not sorry hahahaha.

Those 90s Songs: The Wallflowers- One Headlight

We all have those days when you have a melody stuck in your head and know it’s for a specific song but, can’t quite think of the song. Yesterday I had a specific chorus melody stuck in my head all day and it wasn’t till this morning that I figure out what it was. And now we are here discussing that song which was “One Headlight” by The Wallflowers. Back in 1996, The Wallflowers released their very successful album, Bringing Down The Horse. This album was one of the biggest albums of 96 spawning 4 singles and 3 Grammy nominations with 2 wins for “One Headlight. Interestingly “One Headlight,” was the second single released from the album. This song (and album) are quintessential for the 90’s. It’s one of those songs that fit quite well in the rotation of the radio at the time and to this day, when it comes on, (if you were alive and aware of them at the time) the words start to come back to you and the next thing you know, you’re singing along.

Those 90’s Songs: Goldfinger- Here In Your Bedroom
Goldfinger – Here in Your Bedroom Lyrics | Genius Lyrics

The other day I was driving with a friend of mine and a 311 song came on. The bass line I heard reminded me of another song but I couldn’t remember at who at that moment. Later that night it came to me in one of those “oh there it is” kind of things. The song I was thinking of was “Here In Your Bedroom” by Goldfinger. This song is from the bands 1996 self titled debut album. The song was inspired by a girl frontman/songwriter John Feldman was seeing. According to the story, Feldman was working at a store selling shoes, and he had a crush on a woman working in the dress department for over eight months. “‘Here in Your Bedroom’ is all about those wacky emotions that a sensitive guy like me gets at a time like that. When we were in her room, there was nothing else going on in the world but me and her,” he told Billboard when the song achieved success. Upon the song’s twentieth anniversary in 2016, Feldmann called it his favorite song on the band’s self-titled debut album, Goldfinger. This song is beyond catchy and it will be stuck in your head the moment the hook hits. Sorry not sorry hahahaha!

Those 90’s Songs: 311- Down
Is This Still Good? : 311 — self-titled | by Elliot Imes | Medium

I woke up this morning with a song stuck in my head that I haven’t heard in a very long time. The song was “Down” by 311. I do find it to be a coincidence that this song pops in my head on March 11 (311 day). I remember when this song came out. I was in 7th grade and 311’s self titled album was popping. I heard this song on the radio and after school that day I had my parents take me to the record store to buy the CD. I jammed that album for a good part of 7th grade. I still think the riff for this song is badass. It’s also one of those perfect 90’s songs that instantly takes you back to when it came out.
