90s countdown

[HecticArt]

Six,

 

[sadchild]

@scotchandcigar I want to try and guess the 3 you like. But rather than just guess the three (and probably fail), I'm gonna see if I can narrow it down to those three. See how close I can get....

Are your three included in these 13? Or have I already lost the game?

28 -- Madonna - Vogue
27 20 Cher - Heart of Stone
25 28 Rod Stewart w/ Ronald Isley - This Old Heart of Mine (1989 Version)
22 22 Don Henley - The Heart of the Matter
18 26 Heart - All I Wanna Do Is Make Love to You
17 11 Phil Collins - I Wish It Would Rain Down
14 10 Alannah Myles - Black Velvet
13 17 Aerosmith - What It Takes
09 14 Mötley Crüe - Without You
08 09 KISS - Forever
07 12 Michael Bolton - How Can We Be Lovers
06 06 Luther Vandross - Here and Now
01 04 Sinéad O’Connor - Nothing Compares 2 U

Oh.... sorry..... I was answering for Scotch.



But you've got 4 of my 6.

 

[sadchild]

You're 2 for 3. Pretty good, but you don't win the jackpot.

 

[sadchild]

Rats! Is it "Black Velvet" I should not have eliminated?

You found the missing one, but replaced one of my choices.

 

[sadchild]

DOH! My final answer:

28 -- Madonna - Vogue
22 22 Don Henley - The Heart of the Matter
01 04 Sinéad O’Connor - Nothing Compares 2 U

...?

...?

Bingo.

I own exactly 1 Madonna album: Ray of Light. But somewhere I posted a list of the songs I like by her. Vogue has a great groove.

Don Henley IMO has one of the top 10 voices of rock, and he writes some good songs too. So despite being a ballad, I like that one.

And I was always a fan of Sinead (until she went bonkers) and her unique voice.


Generally, I only like Rod Stewart's early work, and I don't even recognize the song on this countdown.

It's a cover (re-done with one of the brothers). I assume after he had so much success redoing "Downtown Train" in 1989 he decided to do more in the 90s like this one, "Havin' A Party" (Supremes), "Your Song" (Elton) and "Leave Virginia Alone" (Tom Petty).
