1997 Lilith Fair interviews

with Joan Osbourne, Susanna Hoffs, Fiona Apple, Nina Persson (The Cardigans), and Sarah McLachlan (also, a little bit of Tracy Chapman singing Proud Mary with Joan and Sarah), 27 July 1997, from VHS

they really ought to bring this back. there are SOOOO many amazing women in music right now.

[@MostlyCloudy]

Bring it back :( I was too young and broke to make a show in the 90s

[@elmarbeau]

these girls made history in 97 - 98.

[@KristenEykelMHt]

Thank you for saving this video!

This is what VH1 used to be like. I'm glad this what I grew up with compared to stereotypical degrading bullshit they air now. I miss the 90 and the 90's woman.

[@oglifeline1005]

i was not alive in the 90s but through the years i have grown to love and especially now in my teenage years, look up to all these women. i was already upset i missed out on these artists individually but i am finding out that this amalgamation happened now...im so angry. happy deep down but...

[@angelicaduncan9694]

That’s because you have an intellectual mind. You think outside the box and it’s okay to like what came out in the 2000s and 2010s but liking older genres means more organic and original sounds and production. Hope you’re doing well now!!!

[@simonb8988]

I was born in ‘88 but have always had an incredible memory and ability to understand a lot of things that kids my age didn’t. I remember from about ‘92/‘93 and up and the 90’s were freaking awesome. I remember watching a one hour special on VH1 in ‘98 about Lilith Fair and thought it was really cool even though I was a 10 year old boy.

I was 21 in 1997, it was a magical time.

[@Axel-hv5bp]

[@itsEziie]

[@parklife3663]

i think there should be a nerd fair where geeky music gets blasted for 3 days straight. i think that would be cool

[@estateviolentaii5053]

Nerdapalooza... i'm not even kidding

[@Meelaphsom]

@LyricsBYFionaAppleIT its so cute, that Fiona says, "I feel like I got elected into this club, that's really cool to be in." have to use that one and quote her some day. (;

[@elmarbeau]

THE USA was great during the 80's and 90's the best country in the world. Hope you can make so much art and give the best for the next 30 years. When I remember this It's about America and MTV. you changed the rules make America great again!

What's even more ironic, majority female musicians were also being proud to be part of Billboard Modern Rock Tracks @ Alternative Songs. Like, 99.9%

[@redandbluebulldog1508]

There will never be tours like this again. Nowadays to gather any sort of youthful crowd for a live musical outdoor performance requires one living human being on stage, and a laptop.

Lol 8:10 the lady in da background

[@7mandoblu]

Lesbians everywhere must have loved this tour.

[@pjay5964]

Coward. Say that personally to them and they would KICK your pathetic ass!

[@brookeb7994]

It was amazing!

[@realm23x73]

Thought Marilyn Manson was on the 97 tour?
