How Did This Go #1? Surprising Hits of the 90s
from Totally 80s and 90s Recall · host Totally 80s and 90s Recall
The 1990’s were a wild time for music. The emergence of so many styles and genres of music made it one of the most eclectic decades of our lifetimes. However, despite producing some of the most iconic and memorable songs and albums of the last 40-50 years, somehow some questionable songs were able to top the Billboard charts. On this week’s episode, Rob and Dave take a look at a group of songs that overcame many of their own shortcomings to somehow become the most popular song in America for at least 1 week in the 90’s. We’ll look at the songs, what they were all about and discuss why we think they may have been able to rise up the charts and overtake music, that looking back was completely superior in so many ways. So buckle up for some interesting hits from the 90’s this week, and maybe a few you might actually like, as we ask the question “How Did These Songs hit #1 in the 90’s?” Pandora: https://pandora.app.link/iq8iShjXOLb Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/totally-80s-and-90s-recall/id1662282694 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/11dk5TUoLUk4euD1Te1EYG?si=b37496eb6e784408 Amazon Music: https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/1960c8f9-158d-43ac-89a6-d868ea1fe077/totally-80s-and-90s-recall YouTube Podcasts: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLH9lGakNgCDZUkkHMUu88uXYMJu_33Rab&si=xo0EEVJRSwS68mWZ Playlists: Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/1I0dKRDgCVyGgK8fj4xH9O Apple: https://music.apple.com/us/playlist/90s-1-hits/pl.u-V9D73zaC1JlN5z?ls Amazon: https://music.amazon.com/user-playlists/627b5ad750d34f819b043f5a5a45728esune?marketplaceId=ATVPDKIKX0DER&musicTerritory=US&ref=dm_sh_3J8EiCPFVgxFWjS4w3WXV2m1P Keywords: 90s Music, Billboard Hot 100, 90s Hits, One Hit Wonders, Music Podcast, 90s Nostalgia, Totally 80s and 90s Recall Contact Us: Website: https://bleav.com/shows/totally-80s-and-90s-recall Email: [email protected] LinkTree:https://linktr.ee/80s90srecall Voicemail: (509) 426-4542 Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
