"Top 97 of the '90s" According to Winnipeg's Power 97 - Graham - 05-24-2008
I'm going to post this list because, quite frankly, I think it is total garbage. They built this big countdown up so much for the May Long, I didn't listen to it because I didn't want to be dissapointed...and dissapointed I would be when I looked the list up!
Keep in mind this is for a poser "new rock" station that generally plays crap, and forget that the Hip kept writing music after 1994. Also notice the mysterious absence of any Headstones tracks, which, "Cemetery" probably kicks the pants off of 50 of these songs. Predictable as always, people forget that Radiohead has 8 million other songs better than "Creep," there's not even one of my personal favs "One Headlight" by The Wallflowers, more mysterious absences by Matt Good, and not a single track from REM's monstrous "Automatic For The People."

Obviously Power 97 didn't refer to the Hip 64 voting results or they would have put ABAC and Meridian ahead of Little Bones and Courage.

Believe me..we're not paid to think
my wrong,but I could have sworn it was '89...

That station is obviously stuck in the early 90s. I could be wrong, but I don't think there's one song on that list that was released after 1995.

Kid Rock's Bawitaba was released in 1998. Personally, I wish it was never released at all

ABAC was released in 1996

Exactly. The song doesn't hold, it has no value, there is nothing about it that makes me want to hear it 5, 10, 20 or hell even 1 year later. Which brings us to....
BLINK 182?!
Gaaaaaaaaah.
This station would lead you to believe that "All The Small Things" was better than "THREE ANGELS!" We won't mention that "Three Angels" could probably make a top 10 list for "best ballads ever written." Or "Hello Time Bomb." How bout "Paranoid Android." The station could have even showed off some kind of cultish versatility and throw in an "E-bow The Letter." Screw some more obvious choices, but even a rock station like Power 97 could grow some balls and throw something from Jagged Little Pill on the list.
