The Story:
When I first started putting this one together, I thought there was no chance of it being at all close.
Everyone knows "Don't Speak," and everyone loves it. As for me, it's not my favorite song from the era by any means. But it's solid. It's fine. Cool. Great.
But you know what else?
I saw that shit over there, Gwen. And I was wondering whose it was.
What's that? Oh, it's YOUR shit? It's YOUR shit?
I'm not sure I believe you. Could you describe this shit to me?
Bananas, you say? Could you spell bananas for me?
RIGHT! B! AN, AN, AS! THAT IS YOUR SHIT!
See? I didn't even mean to get "Hollaback Girl" stuck in my head--and all of a sudden, it is!
So what'll it be, partner? Are you a fan of the epic grunge-pop (can I call it that?) of the early '90s and No Doubt? Or can you step up the plate, and admit to your love of catchy one-liners?
Is your shit bananas?!?!
VOTE ON THE RIGHT!

Sorry ... but Don't Speak is from 1995 ... when I was in High School and therefore it will be super awesome just because of that fact alone. Gwen lost a little something when she went solo. But, I'm always going to vote for 90s over future stuff anyway so maybe I'm biased but who cares ... it's some pretty awesome stuff.
