Year-End Poll #50: 1999

[Image description: a collage of photos of the 10 musicians and musical groups featured in this poll. In order from left to right, top to bottom: Cher, TLC, Monica, Whitney Houston, Britney Spears, Sixpence None the Richer, Christina Aguilera, Sugar Ray, Deborah Cox, Ricky Martin. End description]

As to be expected with a year marking the end of a millennium, a lot has happened this year. With Believe, Cher has become one of the few artists to have hits in four different decades. The song is also notable for its use of Auto-Tune. While the software had been used before to stealthily edit vocal performances, Believe cranked up the effect to give Cher's vocals a futuristic, almost otherworldly sound reminiscent of the vocoder.

Speaking of technology, 1999 also marks the release of a little website whose effects on the music industry are still felt today: Napster. With the leak of the MP3 format to the public, sites like Napster made it easy for people to share and download music for free. Maybe this could have been prevented if the record industry was able to use the MP3 themselves, but it's understandable why many were hesitant. The MP3 heavily compressed the sound and traded audio quality for file space. Some people assumed that the general public wouldn't want to sacrifice audio quality in order to get free music.

But there's another reason why the MP3 might have failed to catch on in an industry-approved way. By the late 90's, CD sales were at an all-time high and so were the record industry's profits. The TRL era was in full effect stirring up the teenage fanbases (and anti-fanbases). With artists like Britney Spears and the Backstreet Boys (to be featured later), the Max Martin production style could be heard all over the pop charts.

1999 also came with heightened anxiety over the Y2K Bug, the fear that computers wouldn't be able to process dates containing the new year. Obviously the world didn't end at the dawn of the new millennium, but that was due to the efforts of people working behind the scenes to prevent these errors. Because of their efforts, life would be able to continue on in the year 2000.

But maybe not for the record industry.

Train vs. Sixpence None the Richer - Hey Soul Kisster

Download: OGG Vorbis - M4A (AAC) - MP3 (not recommended)

I don't actually remember precisely where the inspiration for this one hit me -- probably the shower. The finished product managed to get a listener to say he hated it while also admitting that I made the pairing work, which is a definite first.

Also, five new bootlegs in the past six months must be some kind of personal record... at least in the past 15 years.

As always, this and many other fine bootlegs can be found at my bootlegs page.

The Lines of My Earth - Sixpence None the Richer

--

The lines of my earth So brittle, unfertile, and ready to die I need a drink but the well has gone dry And we in the habit of saying the same things all over again For the money we shall make

This is the last song that I'll write 'til you tell me otherwise And it's because I just don't feel it This is the last song 'til you tell me otherwise And it's because I just don't feel it anymore

1, 38, 45!

1: Your current favorite song

VERY difficult question right now, but I'm going to go with "Knackers Yard Blues" by Lindisfarne, even though I can tell I'm teetering on the verge of being tired of it.

38: A song that you think is underrated

Everybody remembers Sixpence None The Richer for "Kiss Me", but I've listened to "The Lines of My Earth" a lot lately, since it reminds me of my version of Sir Percival in the Arthurian story I'm writing. People complain about Christian music being positive to the point of being fake and toxic, but 2000s Christian music was the complete opposite direction.

45: Your favorite Disney song

Child!Me insists that I post this classic from Mulan

#if we're talking disney parks music? the old innoventions loop from epcot #music tag #asks #c4ts4ndstuff #also yes i know sixpence none the richer is on the fringes of christian music however as far as i am concerned they count

good news: i graduated from physical therapy

bad news: it’s because my hand strength improved but isn’t helping the hyperextension or pain so he’s sending me to occupational therapy instead 🙃

#also the entire visit was super awkward (for me) #because the radio was playing just the most intensely romcom-esque music #and he is very attractive #like sorry dude #but i absolutely cannot make eye contact with you while you’re holding my hand and kiss me by sixpence none the richer is playing #i just can’t

Hey there, Seb!

Heart's a little heavy today and I thought I'd share the song that came up because of it...

A Woman's Worth by Alicia Keys https://open.spotify.com/intl-de/track/1NRorokmYEtr1koWybvaE4?si=a174e734828b404b

Have you already decided on next week's MOM's theme? I'd like to suggest the theme of "sexy" songs. I think we all need a playlist of pure unadulterated smutty songs ❤️️💛

*tight hugs* I'm sorry to hear of your heavy heart today. I hope this lightens the burden, if just a bit.

I am fairly certain the majority of us you already have playlists to meet that specific mood, but whilst we are on the subject. What sort of themes would everyone like to see?

Drop some suggestions in the comments and I will make a poll.

#watched west wing episode college kids (s4ep3) today and uh… #got Buffy flashbacks. remember when Aimee Mann performed This is How it Goes and Pavlov’s Bell in that Buffy ep when Spike first gets his #soul and is being tormented by the first and gets into a fight during her set and then she has the only bit of dialogue ever said by a #performer at the bronze “this is why I hate vampire towns” #they were crazy for that honestly. anyways love Aimee Mann she slays. don’t understand why the barenaked ladies were playing at a campaign #event for pres Bartlet bc they’re literally Canadian like it’s a pretty fundamental thing about them. also love how they didn’t actually #have the barenaked ladies they just had four vaguely middle aged guys shot from far away holding instruments while One Week played in the #background. also why did Donna mention Chrissie Hynde if they were actually gonna put her or any of her music in the episode. #they really got my hopes up for nothing there same with Sixpence None the Richer tbh but to a much lesser extent #west wing #btvs #nia originals

Define "better" in any way you wish :)
