Am I the only person who misses music from the mid 90s till 2000? 😂 45 years old as of yesterday and I still listen to stuff from the same era. Most new music is absolute crap man.

[@TravisTerrell]

Oh no way dude!! Read the comments for almost any song from this era and you'll find loads of people reminiscing! I, too, much prefer it. (Though tbh not this song much.) Even going into the early 2000's is so positive for me (though admittedly that pop became a bit of a different animal.)

[@brendabowman622]

Shortly after 2000, "music" switched from being made by artists to being made by "performers". Rap/Hip-Hop and "pop" music killed the art. Lady Gaga (whose _real_ name is Stehanie something) was an exceptional artist who only became popular after transforming herself into a weirdo wearing dresses made of meat to draw attention to herself.

[@FreeHazelNuts]

[@justineglickman]

As a teen I spent years in a fairly traumatizing Psychiatric group home, my parents gave me up. My roommate used to sing this to me when I was scared and we were falling asleep. A small act of kindness that still makes me loved when I hear it 20 years later.

It was '98 or '99. My friends and I were in high school, and unpacking in our hotel room at a convention. The beds had this odd built-in radio between them. I remember folding clothes and listening to this song through the old speakers. I remember the anticipation of meeting the beautiful girl I only got to see a couple times a year at those conventions. I remember being young, with everything ahead of me. That's a moment I'd revisit in a heartbeat.

[@peterborchers410]

A college friend of mine, then the head of a major broadcasting company in Munich, brought this song back to Germany from a trip to the U.S. and had his DJs play it. It became a huge hit. A little later, the station brought Shawn in for a few smaller concerts. I saw him and his stunning band in Munich: they were awesome. Nothing came of Shawn's international career, probably because he was a rather introverted shy man, at least at that time. He was all about the music, never about the whole business. From the meet and greet I remember him as a very nice, polite, modest guy. I think he's still active in the club scene in and around.

[@AriseandShineSleepers]

Such a great classic song. Blessed to have grown up in the 90s.

That lyric "She's seen her share of devils in this Angel-town" wow, that had so many layers of meaning it's wonderfully poetic, very

[@justinamstead5464]

This song again shows why the 90's was the best time for all genres of music, hands down!

[@henrygaga7482]

One of the best 90s one-hit-wonders ever. Barely remember this song coming out as I was very young but my mom loved it and it was on the radio a lot.

[@GTR0419]

I knew Shawn back in the day. He was friends with my friends in the Josh Joplin Band and we hung out some. Great times. Great guys. Great music in the ATL.

[@liamrescorla6670]

Cool story bro. And I actually mean that. ❤️

Where Has This Monumental Majestic Anthem Been Hiding. Amazing Vocals Combined With Brilliant Musicality. Cheers 🍻 👏 For This Majestic Memory. ❤❤❤.

When my wife and I were first married and pregnant with our first child we thought my wife was going into preterm labor. She called me while I was at work panicked and I told her I would head home and take her to the hospital. On my way home I was getting pretty worked up and this song started playing on the radio. Made me a bit more emotional, but I somehow knew deep down things would be alright. 15 years later my daughter is doing well and learning to drive. She's a pain in the butt, but I love her.

[@samwisegamgee1243]

TOTALLY forgot about this song until I saw the recommended link on a Goo Goo Dolls video. H Haven't heard it in YEARS. What a nostalgic gem. ❤

[@sarahjames5638]

2021 haven't heard this song for an eternity, it holds up well

[@emmel4fun]

I was shopping at Sprouts yesterday afternoon and this song was playing. I had forgotten this song. I had to come look for it on KZbin.

[@pearkitten77]

This it's a nice sing to listen too when your really down, stressed or just need some kind words. :-)

i love you momma in heaven,,you always told me everything is going to be all right....i miss you my best friend,,its so hard without you,,,have fun in HEAVEN,,,and oh..rock a bye bye.

[@RennonShow]

I have been searching for this song for over 20 years. I had it on a SONY music cd that I lost in 2000. It was my soundtrack in the late 90s, the soundtrack of my youth. I found it today thanks to The Office series. I am very happy now.

[@mayufitcook]

This song instantly brings me back to teenage memory.

[@thenickfoxx]

this was my dads favourite cd when i was growing up. i can remeber so vividly driving up to huntsville, Ontario Canada when i was like 7 or 8. My dad threw this cd in the old cd player in his '94 ram and I enjoyed it so much - as a young boy. Today i'm 27. I have never stopped listening to this album throughout my 20's. All the songs start to mean so much more to you as you age. I think my dad connected with these songs on a personal level, almost like he left a story for me. I love you so much dad.

[@Catinthehat788]

Same. My dad had a 97’ ram and we would play this song on a road trip together. Those were great times together.

[@HarryKrinkle]

I'm 29, and I feel old. I _know_ that I'm old. People tell me, oh, no, you're still young, but I just brush it off. They say you're only as old as you feel. Well, I feel old. This song, and the genre of watered-down Alt-Rock it represents, is as foreign to contemporary music like Taylor Swift and One Direction as Donna Summer and Talking Heads were to it. It takes me back to Middle-School, riding on the bus and pretending that I didn't like it. Same for Tal Bachman's "She's So High", which not coincidentally, is the next thing on the Recommended feed. Kids would listen to this and decry it as "Old People Music", same as my peers did with 70's music. The feed to right of this comment is like a trip to my childhood; "Save Tonight", "Steal My Sunshine", "Truly Madly Deeply", "One Headlight". It's all gone, lost to the past, to the sands of time. The world we grew up in in the 90's was swept away. I think that always happens to one degree or another, but between the War on Terror and the rise of the Internet, I think ours was more swept away than most. I sometimes feel like a refugee of another time. I have what the Japanese call Mono no Aware; a wistfulness at the impermanence of things. And it already seems like I've seen so much pass. Yet they tell me I'm still young... If indeed I make it to old age, I'm not sure how I'll deal.

[@jeremy1069fm]

Same feeling here. I'm 28.

[@HarryKrinkle]

***** Agreed. They abuse the synthesizer too much, nowadays.

[@Effrijim-mq9ej]

I'm 28 and the nostalgia eats at me. This song is one of the anthems of my childhood. I miss those days so much.

[@mw2173]

+Harry Krinkle I'm only 21 and I feel the same way. All of those songs are my favorites. I love 90s music

[@jeremy1069fm]

I'm having trouble listening to one of my favorite genres now, Alternative. Too much "wooo wooo woo" not enough guitar. No substance. There was a time, between 1995 and 2002 (actually most of the 90s, peaking between 1997 and 2001) when most of the hit songs had structure and some sort of substance, a good chorus, made you feel good, while telling a good story, or expressing something. Now the Pop and Alternative, a lot of it is just a bunch of synth noise. I don't feel like I should be feeling like this, I'm not even 30 yet (28) but every year it seems to get worse. I thought things were bad in 2003, but at least there was a few good songs even back then.

[@digitalbadger89]

To this day the chorus just makes me super weepy but happy at the same time. Life's hard and scary and unfair, but no matter what happens, whatever struggles we go through, whatever losses we take, whatever demons we have to fight day in and day out... everything's gonna be all right.

[@darekaushi]

I remember when I first heard this song in the nineties I never liked it, but now I can't stop listening to it. It's addictive. Respect to the nineties!

[@Tickbryan]

I am so fortunate to have been born at a time when I could experience the decades of popular music I have heard over the years. Beginning with the sixties and now currently. I have seen it change with the generations that remember the songs from their youth. Every decade has it's favorites. Every generation has a marker in time based on the songs they heard. One thing is certain, and true for myself, you don't appreciate what you are hearing at that time as much as you do now.

[@royksk]

Heard this on the radio this morning. Excellent sound and not the usual repetitious crap we get nowadays.

[@glennckarp]

One of the best lines in a song ever... "she'd be a whole lot prettier if she smiled once in awhile".. Love this ballad.

[@smk3390]

Being one who grew up and became an adult in the 90's it felt different, we just embraced our time. Perhaps it's the same. but we were coming to the end of the century and people were enamoured with life ending and eternal life. I can't put my finger on it, but when i listen to 90s music, there is a soul to it i don't find with anything else.

[@MayWeezable]

Still makes me smile, even after all these years...

[@lygongard1]

I was born in 1987 and the rock music in the 90’s was awesome. Lots of great tunes and one hit wonders. 90’s was a great decade
