We go further back in time this week, almost ten more years than last week, to 1998 and a guy who didn't get a sniff of success until his sixth album before vanishing off the radar again completely. Unless some major change in his fortune occurs, this will be the only thing he'll ever be known for, a hit single that polarized listeners, some loved it for THAT chorus and some hated it's schmaltzy, cheesy delivery. Sounds like we need a definite answer on this one.
It's Shawn Mullins. It's Lullaby. It's on trial.
How do you find Mr Mullins?

That song is so boring! It sounds like a cover of Beck's 'Loser' that has been in the sun too long, it has now curdled. Guilty as hell!

Oh sweet heaven, what was that? I smell verbal dissentry. Not only was it unoriginal and boring but did he prove to us why again the 90's and most of its mediums - comics, clothes and hair styles should be left there to be laughed at emphatically.

HeyheyheyHEY! Let's not dog the 90's in general. The best gaming of my life was in the 90's and they had a pretty great decade of rock music, film, and television going too. I'm far more concerned about how the last decade and some change have shaped up.

I like this song. CLASSIC! "And she'd be a whole lot prettier if she smiles once in a while, cos even her smiles look like a frooooooooooown" Love it! Also apparently it is featured in The US Office!! I can NOT wait to see that hahaha. Apart from both singers having long hair and both songs having drums. It sounds nothing like remotely in the same universe as Loser. www.youtube.com/watch?v=YgSPaXgAdzEAlso Classic! |

There was a lot of awful, granted, but the 90's had a lot going for it, and that's not just rose-tinted nostalgia. Britpop, Nirvana, Tarantino.. three things right off the top of my head. And my favourite Prince records were released in the 90's. Weezer. Manic Street Preachers. Korn. Placebo. There's some more. Lot to love about the 90's, young man. Anyway, the votes have been cast and.. poor old Shawn. Step this way, please. The Pop Justice League have spoken, and I have no other choice but to send you for a swim here.  |

Ford was born in the 90s therefore making him no more than 9 when they finished therefore rending his opinion on what should be left there moot.
