Missed this somehow. Unsurprising results. Woulda voted for Chili Peppers or R Hitchcock.

It's hard for me to articulate how I feel about the fact that a chart like this existed at one time in, you know, a sensible country. Sort of absurd and mind-boggling but somehow natural at the same time?

Sisters for me.

It may look that way from your frozen wasteland, but there's nothing sensible about America.

America in 1991 was pretty much like today. The president was named George Bush and all....

The president isn't named George Bush today!

I voted for "Losing My Religion" but I should have voted for "The Fly."

I enjoyed Matos's Elvis Costello writeup.

three years pass...

I found some videotape from my freshman year in college (fall of '92). I'm videotaping a thunderstorm outside of my dorm window (oh, the days before the internet) and I've got ROCK 103 JEFFERSON CITY playing on my boombox in the background.

In the clip, you hear "Losing My Religion" followed by "Enter Sandman" by Metallica. Interesting times for radio back then.
