First Listen: Radio IO's '90s Pop Channel
Written Feb. 20, 2008 by Sean Ross in Internet Radio with 0 Comments
I've started to make my way through some of the 32 new Radio IO channels announced last month, beginning with '90s Pop. And even with the freestyle/early '90s rhythmic battle now taking place in New York, any listen to undiluted '90s for more than a few minutes brings one quickly to grips with just how lost most of that music is. (Songs from the '90s are also a topic of ongoing consternation for radio -- they're still the music of somebody's life, but a negative for everybody else.) So here's the station at 3:30 yesterday afternoon. How long has it been since you've heard more than one or two of these on the radio?
'N Sync, "I Want You Back"
Seal, "A Prayer for the Dying"
Human League, "Tell Me When"
Backstreet Boys, "Everybody (Backstreet's Back)"
Madonna, "Frozen"
Color Me Badd, "Slow Motion"
X-Scape, "Understanding"
Ini Kamoze, "Here Comes The Hotstepper"
Jamiroquai, "Virtual Insanity"
Ace Of Base, "All That She Wants"
Billy Joel, "The River of Dreams"
Aerosmith, "I Don't Want To Miss A Thing"
Michael Jackson, "Childhood"
Jewel, "You Were Meant For Me"
