We're already in wave 5, I think.
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a bowl of soup
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a rolling hoop
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a ton of lead
Wiggle - you can raise the dead

(those entries look great, btw, CK. I'll dig around a bit and see what suggestions I can come up with)
A belated lol BTW.
Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.

The 90s playlist is up to 1997. Threw in a little Electric Doghouse because that song's only gotten better with age.

Just did a perusal of a few. I appreciated the Letters to Cleo shout out in 93.

One rec for 98, I had this song on a radio sampler back in 98 and remembered it a few years ago and it still sounded great to my ears, unlike many of the other songs on that comp. A rare example of effective sampling/scratching on a sorta rock song

Good one. Eels are definitely a band that flew under my radar at the time.
