Iscreamer1 | Wednesday, April 09, 2003 - 04:30 pm     What song would you pick for each contestant if the genre was 90's Pop? |
Ketchuplover | Wednesday, April 09, 2003 - 06:25 pm     I have no idea. I can't think of a single song |
Texannie | Wednesday, April 09, 2003 - 06:37 pm     I must be horribly old or else very distracted, but I can't think of a 90's song either! LOL |
Hermione69 | Wednesday, April 09, 2003 - 06:45 pm     Where's Deej? She could do this! |
Texannie | Wednesday, April 09, 2003 - 06:54 pm     I know, Herm..she said she wasn't posting..hope she didn't mean at all!!! |
Hermione69 | Wednesday, April 09, 2003 - 06:56 pm     I'll leave her a note and beg. I LOVE "Sex and Candy" by Marcy Playground, but don't quite see that being sung on AI! |
Iscreamer1 | Wednesday, April 09, 2003 - 08:36 pm     Ok, you guys are in the same bag as me. Let's try 60's Rock and Roll! |
Walker | Wednesday, April 09, 2003 - 08:45 pm     still thinking |
Wcv63 | Thursday, April 10, 2003 - 02:18 am     I still listen to my Clash, U2, Tears For Fears and Squeeze albums. I listen to the radio of course but most songs just wash over me. I like Creed, Three Doors Down, Lenny Kravitz, Train, Incubus, Puddle of Mud, Norah Jones etc. I guess they all had songs in the 90's. I had babies in the 90's....so I guess I listened to a lot of twinkle, twinkle and Old McDonalds.  |
Djgirl5235 | Thursday, April 10, 2003 - 05:27 am     Okay - I'm glad to know I'm wanted around here!!! Here goes: Kim C: Alanis Morrisette - Hand In My Pocket Carmen: LeAnn Rymes - Blue Kim L: Jann Arden - Insensitive; or Good Mother Trenyce: Maria Carrey - butterfly Clay: U2 - Where the Streets Have no Name Josh: Garth Brooks - The Thunder Rolls Ruben: Peabo Bryson - Soul Provider |
Hermione69 | Thursday, April 10, 2003 - 06:15 am     Good picks Deej! That "Hand in My Pocket" would be great for Kim C! I love that song! I love "Where the Streets Have No Name" as well, but what "I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For" or "With or Without You"? Or is that late 80s? Who could sing Lenny Kravitz "Stand By My Woman" or "It Ain't Over 'Til Its Over"? Love both those! How about Mary Chapin Carpenter "Passionate Kisses"?? |
Djgirl5235 | Thursday, April 10, 2003 - 06:21 am     Herm - all great choices... With or Without you definitely late 80's... 88 I think. Passionate Kisses - Carmen for sure! Lenny - I don't know who would do those songs justice... maybe Ruben but I think he'd put a real R&B feel to them - might sound really good though! |
Hermione69 | Thursday, April 10, 2003 - 06:23 am     GOOD MORNING, DEEJ! I love early 90s alternative rock, but don't think I will see anyone doing "Basket Case" by Green Day or "Interstate Love Song" by Stone Temple Pilots!!! |
Hermione69 | Thursday, April 10, 2003 - 06:24 am     Or "Zombie" by the Cranberries!! |
Weenerlobo | Thursday, April 10, 2003 - 06:30 am     Like your picks, DJGirl and I totally agree. |
Djgirl5235 | Thursday, April 10, 2003 - 06:35 am     Thank you very much everyone!!!! |
Texannie | Thursday, April 10, 2003 - 08:25 am     I am SO old...I don't know ANY of these songs!!!!!!!! LOL |
Marymc | Thursday, April 10, 2003 - 11:15 am     annie...i'm with you and wc....i had my baby in 1990. i can name you a couple Raffi songs, but i don't think i got my brain cells back til very recently....though now that my baby's entering puberty, i think i'm gonna lose 'em again! |
Djgirl5235 | Thursday, April 10, 2003 - 11:26 am     Mary & Annie - you're only as old as you feel, and right about now I'm feeling about 16 |
Texannie | Thursday, April 10, 2003 - 11:33 am     I feel really young till I read these posts! LOL |
Djgirl5235 | Thursday, April 10, 2003 - 11:52 am     lol, Annie! I grew up during the 90's so I remember all them music, it's what has formed my musical repetoire... Now, ask me in 10 more years what was hot in the '00's, and I won't have a clue! |
Ketchuplover | Thursday, April 10, 2003 - 01:29 pm     I think they should group sing "Dead Skunk in the Middle of the Road" |
Wcv63 | Thursday, April 10, 2003 - 02:01 pm     "Blister in the Sun" would be a cool group sing. I think Violent Femmes might not fit the "family" theme though. My formative music years were the late 70's and 80's. I'm definitely a child of the English punk/alternative rock era. I think Clay could sing Marshall Crenshaw beautifully. |
Ketchuplover | Thursday, April 10, 2003 - 02:17 pm     "I'm already there" for Clay "They're coming to take me away" for Carmen "Cry a little for me" Kim Caldwell |
Donut | Thursday, April 10, 2003 - 08:22 pm     Blister in the Sun sure would be a nice change... i would love to see them stretch and do something really different for them.. My mind goes blank the minute i try to think of songs (or anything for that matter).. but i will try for some possibiities: Clay- Thunder Road (Springsteen) Joshua- Love Shack(B52s) Kimberly L- Crazy on You (Heart) Ruben DoesThe Ramones:I Wanna be Sedated (hmmm.. i think i am getting stuck in the 80's Trynece-I Think I'm Turning Japanese (Vapors) Carmen-I Want to F You Like an Animal (Nine Inch Nails) Kimberly C- It's Not Easy Being Green (Kermit the Frog) |
Calamity | Friday, April 11, 2003 - 04:24 pm     I haven't seen enough of AI to pick a suitable 90's pop song for each contestant but here's a few I thought of that could probably fit the show (and they're not all ballads! Do they always sing ballads or do I just tune in at the wrong times?). "Freedom 90" - George Michael "Wonderwall" - Oasis "Who Will Save Your Soul?" - Jewel "Walking in Memphis" - Marc Cohn "Life is a Highway" - Tom Cochrane "Truly Madly Deeply" - Savage Garden This was kinda hard since pop was overshadowed in the US by alternative and rap for most of the '90's. I've gotta drag out my Smashing Pumpkins, NIN, and Jeff Buckley cds when I get home! I'm feeling major nostalgia for the mid-90's. Plus U2! "Angel of Harlem"! That's from '88 though. But who cares?!  |
Jbean | Friday, April 11, 2003 - 07:35 pm     it would be funny to see one of the girls do a paula abdul song. lol. here are my picks: kim c. - one way or another (blondie) kim l. - can't let go (mariah) clay - when i see you smile (bad english) carmen - you were meant for me (jewel) trenyce - queen of the night (whitney) josh - check yes or no (george strait) ruben- the power of love (luther vandross) and if rickey was still there ( ) i would want to hear him sing "the way you make me feel" by mj (i know that's from the late 80's, but i think that would be a good one for him) great idea for a thread, iscreamer! |
