    lol @ sun-in, how true

    i had a football match when i was about 15, i put it on just before the game, went out and played, and it had to be the hottest day ever, my hair went ginger by the second half, totally fucked up the guy who was marking me.


    best tune i had on cassette, east-17 "stay another day!"

    quality xmas tune, just throw in some xmas bells and no-one will know the difference, classic

    The really depressing thing is that I was to OLD in the 90s to associate with most of these.

    Some of them are familiar, but I think the list is mainly if you were a kid in the 90s.
