Tune In Tuesday: Even More 90s Jams!
It's official: 90s jams are the best.
They're fun and sometimes hilarious and they allow us all to be nostalgic about things from our (well, my) childhood.
And my childhood included a lot of country music.
So, here are a couple of my fave country jams from the '90s. *fingerguns*
Listening to this song as an adult, I realize just how cheeky it is. It makes me like it that much MORE.
I used to BELT this sucker with my mom on road trips. :)
Yeah, this song is still good. It is also perhaps the reason why I'm a proponent of daily wine consumption.
*grins*
Ok, I'ma stop now. Hopefully I've demonstrated that if you EVER need a recommendation for a 90s country song, I'm the girl who can give it to you.
Happy Tuesday!

Tune In Tuesday: More 90s Jams
More 90s you say?
I'm good with that.
Let's keep last week's theme up and turn to the soundtrack of Baz Luhrmann's FREAKING FANTASTIC 1996 film version of Romeo + Juliet. People, this soundtrack holds up.
First and foremost, it features Radiohead's "Talk Show Host" as Romeo's theme throughout the film. As much as Radiohead probably wouldn't like this, this incredibly gorgeous, haunting song was my introduction to their music.
And now for something a little less moody just plain fun: The Cardigan's "Lovefool," which played on the radio all the dang time and annoyed the hell out of my mom, and is still awesome.

But Radiohead wasn't the only crazy awesome band featured on this soundtrack. There's also this darkly catchy tune by Garbage.

Aaaand now that I've stopped dancing, I desperately want to watch this movie. If you've never seen it, you should definitely look into it picking it up or Netflixing it or straight up buying it. Because it is and AWESOME film. And the music is AWESOME. And Paul Rudd is in it. (As well as, you know, pre-Titanic Leonardo DiCaprio.)
