Music in the 1990s was about a lot more than just flannel shirts. Well, it was about a little more than that, anyway. In the days before Napster and Apple Music, bands could still make a living putting out a crappy album with one good song. This week, we’re taking a look at the best and the worst of the 90s one-hit wonders. Because on a podcast, a show about music is about more than just songs - it’s about click bait. I’m too sexy!
