Subject: What one song/video epitomizes the 1990's?
Written By: Tyler77 on 08/27/05 at 12:36 pm
I know it's a tough choice, but I'll go with Collective Soul's "Shine." Tail end of the grunge era, beginning of the time when alternative became more popular. Also the lyrics and music and video show how the 90's (economically, culturally) was in a stark contrast to the carefree "me" 80's. The 90's are what I call the "sobering" decade.

Song: "Semi Charmed Life" by Third Eye Blind
Everytime I hear that song, the first thing that pops into my Head is the 90's, it just sounds so much like the 90's Anthem to me or something
Video: "The World I Know" by Collective Soul

I think the video I would pick would be 'Estranged' by Guns N Roses. It comes from the Illusions album in 1991, but this video was released in late 92/early 93. I think it symbolizes the overindulgence of the 1990's.

Thats really something that is impossible to pinpoint...the 1990s had a lot of diverse songs/videos from many diverse artists and all of them could easily define the 90s, it all depends on who you are talking to....
Try asking yourself a question like that pertaining to the 80s, its impossible to tell really...just as its equally as hard to decide an epitomizing song of the 60s and one for the 70s. Everyone will say something different, and thats what makes music so incredible, it appeals to different people in different ways and keeps the conversation alive...

Song: Smells Like Teen Spirit ~ Nirvana
This is truly the 90s anthem if there were one.
Video: Enter Sandman ~ Metallica

Collective Soul's self-titled album just has that sound that shouts out "Mid-90s" from a distance.
And anything Nirvana would shout out early-90s from a distance. ::)
As for video... couldn't really say.
