As part of my ongoing celebration for my 30th birthday, I am highlighting some popular songs from throughout my years. Songs were picked based off of a list of Grammy award winners and Billboard Top 100. Then, I chose my favorites to highlight.
Year: 1993
Book: Unknown
Music Selections:
- Mariah Carey "Dream Lover" -- Yes it's cheesy pop but it was 1993 and I was 11 years old. Give me some slack.
- DC Talk "Lean on Me" -- I remember going on a few youth group trips and we sang along to this song on repeat. I just love this version even now.
- Smashing Pumpkins "Today" -- My introduction into alternative music. I really liked this song, but didn't own any Pumpkins albums until late middle school.
- Tom Petty "Mary Jane's Last Dance" -- Both of my parents were big Tom Petty fans. I remember that when this song came out, we played it over and over in our house. And the music video with Kim Basinger is just beautiful.
- Bryan Adams "All for Love" -- Had to include it. It was the hit of the year.
