🧑🏽🎤 Rage Against the Machine
🎵 Killing In The Name (1992)
💿 Rage Against the Machine
My 90s Top 5 was nailed down pretty early on, and this just missed out.
I was 18 when it came out; I'm 18 again any time I hear it.
I won't do what you tell me.

🧑🏾🎤 Cornershop
🎵 Brimful of Asha (Norman Cook remix) (1998)
💿 When I Was Born for the 7th Time
Because after the last couple of songs we all need a bosom for a pillow, and a Fatboy Slim remix on a 45 to cheer us up.

Pretty sure I bought this CD off the back of Susan's House, but I don't think there's a bad track on it. This is one where the lyrics speak to me.

We've reached a more bittersweet, almost melancholy section of the 30 now. We're done rocking out, it's all about the lyrics. Well, maybe until Monday.

🧑🎤 Flowered Up
🎵 Weekender (1992)
💿 The Best of Flowered Up
Flowered up arrived one Tuesday afternoon in 1992, dropped a 13 minute indie rock banger, and then pretty much bogged off again. Didn't even chart in Iceland.

With all those ghosts and zombies and the army of Björks it was only a matter of time before they showed up wasn't it. Apparently only made number 2 in Iceland; maybe they didn't get Cerys' accent?

My daughter is the same age I was when this came out, and also thinks it's an absolute banger (or whatever the kids say these days). It was also a number 1 in Iceland, so it must be true.

Almost any track from Post could have gone here, but if there's anything more '90s than Björk on the Pops in a Ren & Stimpy t-shirt, I want it caught and bottled.

Because creating a remix so far off-piste the original artist disowns it, then adding a letter to the title and releasing it anyway is about as rock n roll as ambient techno gets.

I told my kiddo that collecting books is not my hobby, because I read them all, then I kinda got a delivery of books (second hand), and my TBR pile now feels out of control!

Guilty pleasure time! This ode to the time Ms Boo lost a loved one in a Swedish department store was probably my last dabble in the world of pure 90s pop.
Also there's an accompanying scifi B movie.
