20 films and albums that were released 20 years ago.

How can you be relieved to have not listened to something? How do you know you wont like it without trying it? Thats like a kid saying I dont like sprouts without tasting them.

Don't be so solemn.
In fact it's really just Morrissey and Jim silly-faces-as-a-substitute-for-acting Carrey. I think I'm on firm ground with both. And I'll admit to ranking Pulp Fiction as Tarantino's best, or even last good, film; and Leon was just brilliant.

usually, music matures with age.... not always the case as Oasis still sound sh!te

 

[Mattonsea]

Looking back 1994 was a great year for music - The Holy Bible by Manic Street Preachers, Grace by Jeff Buckley, Illmatic by Nas, Ready to Die by Biggie, The Downward Spiral by NIN, Definitely Maybe by Oasis, Nirvana Unplugged, Ill Communication by the Beastie Boys, American Recordings by Johnny Cash, Music for a Jilted Generation by the Prodigy, Dummy by Portishead...so many good albums in different genres.

I remember buying the Holy Bible on cassette and getting home to listen to it . It is hard ,ruthless and depressing but I feel still the best album of 94

Most of the list remains unlistned to and unwatched by me. Too busy, distracted or disinterested to watch/listen both then and now.

 

[Lullabelle]

Got quite a few of those albums, even I feel old

 

[Maverick Goose]

Hips and Makers by Kristin [Throwing Muses] Hersh is one of my favourites from the 90s though not on the list.

Wildflowers by Tom Petty was a good one in '94. There were others by you heathens won't be interested.

'I'm the Reason 3BM is So Ugly'? by Your Mum?

 

[Hill Wimp]

Blimey i thought The Breakfast Club would have been on there as that is usually dragged out in lists like this but i found out that was released in 1985.

I must be older than i thought

 

[Flying_Monkey]

Oh noooooo! Someone's put Banco de Gaia and Nas back in the wrong place!

It took me long enough to compile the list - you expect me to get the order right too?
