The eternal question. Â I’m sure you’ve debated this question amongst your friends and family. Â Right???
Best from the Billboard Top 100 of 1996, more specifically.
Something to keep in mind: Â My older sister bought a lot of CDs this year…
My list (in somewhat of a particular order):
More obscure artists / 1 hit wonders:
- Donna Lewis – Always Forever
- Jann Arden – Insensitive
- Sophie B Hawkins – As I Lay Me Down
- Merril Bainbridge – Mouth
- Everything But the Girl – Missing
- Dishwalla – Counting Blue Cars
- Bodeans – Closer to Free
- Ginuwine – Pony (mostly because it’s so ridiculous)
More widely-known:
- Natalie Merchant – Wonder
- Mariah Carey ft. Boyz II Men – One Sweet Day
- Mariah Carey – Fantasy
- Hootie and the Blowfish – Only Wanna Be With You
- Seal – Don’t Cry
- Gin Blossoms – Follow You Down
- Oasis – Wonderwall
- Blues Traveler – Hook
I’m considering doing a YouTube series of some of these songs next year, which just happens to be 15 years after these tunes were hits. Â Maybe I could continue with that offset (upload covers of 1997 songs in 2012, etc.). Â DISCLAIMER: Like most other projects I dream up, this one probably won’t come to fruition.
