Yeah I've decided to go ahead with it.
However, before I start, I should let you know of some changes. One - The time taken for rounds to finish will be longer now - for reasons I shall get to below. Two - Each of the artists shall now have a URL attached to them: each URL is a YouTube video of a song of theirs. I would prefer it if, should you not know anything about the said artist, you listen to this song and judge on its merits. This should really be the bare minimum you do. I appreciate that there'll be a lot of them you've never heard of: but that's rather the point. I'd like this to be a learning experience Three - there are SOME artists that did indeed start in the 1980s. This is slightly unfortunate, but considering the sheer volume of 80s bands, and the fact that these acts will have been more prominent in the 90s, I've decided to include them. Four - similarly, some of the artists will have started late, in 1998/9. There was some debate as to whether they should count for this or not - because you will take, say, Jay-Z for example, and think "ooh I love Empire State of Mind!" Please do not. This is the 90s survivor. Therefore I'll be linking him to a song of his from the 90s It's no good voting for Shakira because Hips Don't Lie was a choooon, because in the 90s she was pretty irrelevant. (and yes, I should have put her in the 00s one). Five - still no MMAI. Six - just for those that are interested, the rounds breakdown goes like this: Quote:

I'm a bit of a 90's anachronism myself so this could be good.

Group H: Daft Punk Robyn R Kelly Bowling for Soup Are you sure about this 'has to have been signed in the 90's' rule by the way Shaun? It's just that it leaves out a lot of quintessentially 90's artists like Pulp and Primal Scream. I realise it's probably too late for me to be saying this though.

Yeah it's difficult - but coincidentally I've included both of those because they're more known for their 90s stuff. I think the rule I've put is more of a general one - since it usually takes less than a decade for an artist to break through (in an ideal world anyway )

Cheers.
Group E: Eminem Christina Aguilera Skunk Anansie Tim McGraw Group H: Daft Punk Bowling for Soup R Kelly Robyn Really liked that Skunk Anansie song it was linked too! And didnt think I knew Daft Punk but I love that song. I suspect I know songs by other artists but not know it was by them kinda thing.
