89X returns?

[MWmetalhead]

That one and mmm...mmm...mmm by Crash Test Dummies are guilty favorites of mine.

[48125er]

AAA - yes.

Alternative? nah.

Agreed. Crazy was always on WNIC on the carpool ride home from school as was “Kissed from a Rose”.

I remember Lifehouse, Nickelback and Daughtry was played a LOT on WNIC those days.

Seal was mid 90s, my friend. The folks you mentioned didn’t hit popularity until 2000 and after.

I thought you were talking about crazy by gnarls barkley, which I do remember WNIC playing a lot when it came out, my mistake.

That one and mmm...mmm...mmm by Crash Test Dummies are guilty favorites of mine.

The weird al version of mmm mmm mmm is better called Headline news

Another odd popular alt song of that era is Peter pumpkinhead and little later, Devil went down to georgia by Primus.

Love that song!

"Little pig! Little pig! Let me in!"
"Not by the hair on our CHINNY CHIN CHIN!!"

The music video is worth a watch.

I heard this song on the radio ONE time, like 4-5 years ago.

Green Jellÿ is definitely one of those "interesting" bands. Saw them live in the mid '90s... let's just say, I think I have PTSD from that show.

"Green Jellÿ is definitely one of those "interesting" bands. Saw them live in the mid '90s"

Started as Green Jello, but im sure you can tell why that changed...we used to play that song on The Peak up north back in the day...along with Danzig "Mother" and NIN "Closer"...fun fact, we played Closer (unedited) at a teen dance in Alpena in the winter of 1995...well received by the demon youth of the Sunrise Side...

Yeah, somewhere, I have a Green Jellö CD from before Kraft Foods gave the smackdown. Maybe it's still worth something...

I love it!!!

I remember hearing White Zombie's More Human than Human on 106.7 The Peak circa 1995.

[MegaHertz]

Alt has now been playing Hey Ya. Between them and 89x I feel like it's 2003 again.

And I hated 2003.

[MWmetalhead]

The song belongs on AC radio at this point. No alternative station should be playing it anymore.

[CurlyHoward]

Heard 89X playing "Get Lucky" by Daft Punk. I'll see your 2003 and raise you 2013 being even shittier!

[MotorCityRadioFreak]

Agreed. 2013 sucked so badly. 2003 was okay.

I heard Da Funk by Daft Punk on XM 34 today, and I was instantly catapulted back to jr high.

Agreed. I personally had a shitty 2013 so I'll roll with this.

[TC Talks]

2013 had some epic albums...

Being annoying and bumping this thread too, sorry. But man, what a great early 89X air check. That was fun. Gnyp! We even heard Vince Cannova for a bit. That was way before I ever listened (I was only 10 at that point) so it's cool to hear now.
