Top 5 Thursdays - 90's on 9!

I know, right?  Did you even remember that I once had a weekly blog feature called "Top 5 Thursdays"?  I mean, I think the last time I posted, it was at least 85 degrees in Chicago.  Epic fail.


What's NOT an epic fail, though, is my new car, which is almost four months old:)  One of my favorite features is the XM Radio, in addition to the fact that I no longer am driving a car that looks like it belongs to a drug lord.  And the best part of XM Radio???  "80's on 8" and "90's on 9".


Whatchutalkinbout, Willis?


I am talking about two stations that play REDONKULOUS music that constantly brings me back to my childhood.  Color Me Badd, anyone???


And so, ladies and gentlemen, I bring you this Thursdays Top 5 list...


My Top 5 Favorite 90's Hits!

5. Nothing Compares 2 U - Sinead O'Connor ('90)





4. Hold On - Wilson Phillips ('90)





3. All 4 Love - Color Me Badd ('92)





OMG.  Remember when Donna Martin stalked them at the hotel, and then saw her mom having an affair?  But then Color Me Badd came to the Peach Pit, and all was well with the world.


2.  Motownphilly - Boyz II Men ('91)





1. What About Your Friends - TLC ('92)





Are you a child of the 80's and 90's?  What songs do you remember???

  3. I am dying over here because I went to the Color Me Badd concert in high school. I had totally forgotten about Donna and their appearance on 90210.

    And I'm with Alyssa, Hold On is for sure a belt out when driving song.

    Your blast from the past made my morning.

  20. OH MY WORD.

    Want to hear the saddest thing in the world? When I got my new car (around the same time as yours) they let me do a free 3 month subscription to XM. That just ended last week and we are trying to actually cut back finanacially so I couldn't subscribe.

    WAH.

    I have to say I preferred I want to sex you up over the one you mentioned but mainly because I was kinda whorish. I paired that with Do Me.

  23. Meghan! I LOVE YOU TOO!
    So I'm here on your blog totally loving these songs you posted. We MUST hang if/when I make a trip to Chicago (or if you ever have a reason to be in southern Cali). All for Love?! OMG! I use to loooooove that song! And Hold On! I kept trying to remember this song the other day! TLC?! MOTOWN PHILLY?!?!?!? I was on my break today dancing in the backroom to that song!! Oh girl, you make me smile. :D

  24. Please keep these posts coming! I love it. Geof has Sirius/XM in his car and those are two of my favorite stations.

    This is such a great list and these songs are favorites of mine as well. I remember my friends and I used to have a choreographed dance to Motown Philly (so dorky!).

    It is so hard to pick my favorites, since there were many greats. As an adult I’m beginning to like Tears For Fears now better than I ever did as a kid.

  25. OMG Meghan! This is amazing and I really think I need XM radio now. All of these choices are incredible, though I'd add Annie Lennox's "Walking on Broken Glass," Mr. Big's "To Be with You," Soul Asylum's "Runaway Train," and something by the Cranberries to the mix. :)

  26. dude--nothing compares to you! i totally remember that song.

    when i think about the 90s i have to think about boy bands. backstreet's back alright!

  27. I love my satellite radio. I listen to Hits 1 and the two stations you mentioned. I heard TlC's Red Light Special the other day. Man, that took me back. Love all of these!
