Had some time to kill today so I thought I'd get the new bracket out. Everybody remembers how 1990 was the year of DANCE music, don'tcha? Below are 16 of the finest examples of music that 1990 gave to us. Tell me what ya' think.
The 1/16
The 8/9
The 5/12
The 4/13
The 6/11
The 3/14
The 7/10
The 2/15

(If you've read this far, yes, this is a joke. I have the real 1990 bracket going up in a few hours.)
I recognize about half the artists, but I confess that I do not know a single song in this bracket. This is certainly no reflection on your choices. I was in college (undergrad and grad) from the end of 1979 through 1987, and my daughters were born in 1986 and 1989. So during the 80s, I was either hitting the books, starting my career, or changing diapers. That period is a huge black hole to me.
I knew less than half of them myself. Too much pop.
I know all of the artists and most of the songs but except for Black Velvet, I've tried to forget them....
Man i voted, but that almost caused me pain. I think those songs are why i stopped listening to the radio.
That's also about the time when MTV started going to shit.
Well...I've had my fun. I appreciate you folks going along with it, but, apparently, noone reads to the bottom of the page. The current bracket is just a joke. I had a ton of dance songs come out in 1990 (the dangers of using the Billboard Hot 100 for the year), so I thought I'd jack with you people and see who complained. You've been good soldiers though and I will now put up the REAL bracket. Thank you for playing along with me.

Dawg, I have to admit....you got me, brother. God knows I didn't remember 90's music as being
that bad!
Thank you gents for being good sports. Hope you enjoy the real bracket I put up. :)
I let my wife vote for me on this one.
We Didn't Start The Fire was '89.
So was Black Velvet
I should've smelled a rat when Brant didn't bitch about the selections earlier :2funny: 8) :2funny:
