Matthew Sweet charting two songs at once and neither was Girlfriend. Trivia I would never guess.

Shout-out Matthew Sweet who kept making great stuff that no one listened to

one of the songs of all time

The Tripping Daisy song was good

The Batman Forever soundtrack kinda went hard.

#40 is the best song on the chart

Now that's what I call music

We had no idea at the time how blessed we were to simply turn on the radio and be treated to myriad absolute bangers! That Rancid album just turned 31 and is absolutely masterful - the catchiest song barely nudging its way onto this monster list. Can we just go back to the summer of 95?

they’re definitely all bangers

Give it up for Elastica at #10. We remember.

yeah I do not remember that Dandelion song at all, these charts usually have one or two that managed to slip by despite how much radio and MTV i was consuming at the time!

That top 10 is insane, plus “Stars” sneaking in there 😭

The summer I turned 20. These songs are foundational.

Blues Traveler might be the worst band I’ve ever seen live (that is a Statement). Dude wears a vest loaded with 117 harmonicas and plays each of them exactly the same way (high-pitched and poorly). Spoiler: they do not play blues.

i never knew what J.A.R stood for thank you assbutt

I worked concert security in Southern California that summer (I was 18). I saw Cypress Hill, the Cranberries, Santana with Jeff Beck, Allman Bros eye they first got Wayne Hayes, Sonic Youth, Rolling Stones, Oasis, Pearl Jam. I think Prince was touring. 9 inch nails was playing small venues.

Also, the Blues scene in this days was crazy. This is the one I used to go to,

That's right after Jerry Garcia died, but just before that the Grateful Dead tour was overrun it was too popular and Phish was playing small venues and the big music festivals live Lollapalooza were going strong. So there's a ton under the hood. Sublime was at their peak.

That’s a heckuva list

Love it all! My brother had Rotting Pinata and used to blast it. Howard Stern has like a .500 batting average/50% chance from like 2020 on of him randomly singing Plowed or asking Fred "what was that song that I liked that went 'Say a prayer for me!'" so at least WE haven't forgotten.

oh that video was all over MTV all summer long, it’s how I learned of her. if you turned on MTV on a random summer day in 95 you would see that, More Human Than Human, Only Wanna Be With You, Run-Around, Say It Ain’t So, Molly, Good, and Waterfalls multiple times a day lol

I saw them both nights in Chicago and they were excellent! Jason definitely filled in well!

Hell yeah Rusty getting some action 🇨🇦

God damn I love “…And Out Come the Wolves.” What an album! What a chart!!

the only interesting trivia I can add is my uncle was hang out buddies with Shannon Hoon of blind melon and it was a common occurrence that shannon would *always* find guitars to play no matter what the hangout was. they would be hidden away and shannon would inevitably find one.

my hypothesis: this is what the DJ played when he needed a cigarette or a dump

This might be the best one of these you’ve posted. The world where Matthew Sweet and Rob Zombie are sharing space on the same chart is a better one than we’re living in now

I’m just floored that they initially passed me by. They’re right up my alley and I have a thing for obscure 90s bands that fucking rock. I can list loads of them. Ah well, better late than never.

Wow big week for Canada & Australia

Man that second Blind Melon album is actually really good

Hand In My Pocket debuting, on its way to #1

This is what they took from us

A man can make a meal out of this chart.

Fun fact, Dave Coulier has had two different songs about him chart #1 The other was No Scrubs

Goddamn, I always forget J.A.R. exists and then get to remember anew (for the 20th time) how great it is.

Blue’s Travelers!

that was one of my favorite songs that summer lol

Absolutely love seeing Rusty on that list

I wanchuta COME

take me back

Yes. YES.
