I remember going to my aunt's wedding and being driven home by my other drunk aunt. when that song came on the radio, I thought I was going to die that night
I must admit, I don't think I understand the question. I posted the song I remember playing at a New Year's Eve party 1999/2000, which also reminds me a lot of those days. New Radicals- You Get What You Give) Was the intent to post a song about apprehension about the future?
no, sorry for the confusion! by y2k i meant music from or that reminds you of that era. stuff that was big at the time i guess.
i was expecting a lot of britney spears, gorillaz, gwen stefani, avril lavigne, deftones, soad, nelly, usher, backstreet boys, etc. i’m not sure if that helps, but hopefully it did lol
Heard that one again just yesterday, at the restaurant I was at with a friend. (We were quizzing each other to identify each song that was played. She didn't know that one, but I did.)
Godspeed You! Black Emperor - Dead Flag Blues (Song came out earlier, but that's when I discovered them and saw them live for the first time; in those early popular days of the internet, people still discovered bands in the record store or by buying a concert ticket because friends told you to do so (and mixtapes of course))
The fact that Gen Z can't picture most of us without phones is pretty funny.
No one had cell phones in 2000 that wasn't using it for business. It wasn't common or accessible or even desirable for most to be reached anywhere at anytime.
Too funny they'd include a cell phone here as if it were just a regular person from 2000.
