Yet, my favorite is the Shatner cover.

You… want… to live… like common people?

  I love the Shatner cover, too. But for Joe Jackson’s vocals, not Bill’s. :)

From Grunge to Gangsta Rap and everything in between! Post a song and let’s talk about it!

Rules

All aspects of the LW TOS apply.
Be constructive and don’t gatekeep. Music is highly subjective, and people have different tastes.
If the source is YouTube, use the actual YouTube URL rather than a specific Invidious/Piped link. This prevents dead links as those go on/offline or break due to Google changes while also letting people’s browser plugins, Lemmy clients, etc automatically re-write YT links to their preferred instances. Feel free to put alternate links in the post body, though.
Put the link to the song in the URL field and not the post body.
Submissions must be from the 90s (1990 - 1999) based on either recorded or release date. e.g. if it was recorded in 1999 but released in 2000, we’re not going to split hairs over that; post away. Covers made in the 90s of older music is absolutely allowed and encouraged.

Posting Guidelines / Suggestions

The preferred title format is Artist - Song Name [YEAR]
If a song has a particular meaning or evokes a pleasant memory for you, feel free to share your story with it.

If you have other suggestions that would help grow the community and/or foster discussion, please feel free to share.
