Comment:

And the trip down memory lane doesn’t stop, as Sonic Youth tries to spark alt-rock’s Top 40 takeover with the high-octane hooks and subtle Chuck D verses of their first major-label single, “Kool Thing.” But music fans weren’t quite ready for Generation X’s angst-driven soundtrack, which explains why the accompanying 1990 playlist is, generally speaking, a lighter listen, from the quiet-storm standards of George Michael (“Praying for Time”), James Ingram (“I Don’t Have the Heart”), and Taylor Dayne (“Love Will Lead You Back”) to the epic power ballads of Slaughter (“Fly to the Angels”), L.A. Guns (“The Ballad of Jayne”), and Cheap Trick (“Can’t Stop Falling Into Love”).
