ONTD Original - The Best Songs of the 1990's

[ichabod_crake]

SO-- the Best Songs of the 1990's... there's a LOT here and a LOT to choose from. These songs are just touchstones in my brain as one growing up and trying just to live life growing up through everything. All of these songs helped me survive being a gay in a world that still wasn't ready for it.

Portisheads live album/dvd is just perfection.
Humming and Roads in particular

[screamingintune]

ugh, the things I would do to get just one more Portishead album in my life

They really do be on that less-is-more approach.

Beth is very shy (she was pretty much never apart of interviews), she's not big on touring, so they rarely do.
They pretty much have said "Glory Box" let them have a decent life to live modestly on, so we just do things when we feel like it.

I wish they did a joint tour with MassiveAttack. They share a live keyboardist, too.

Portishead is elite

"I'll fall with your knife" still turns me into a hysterical sobbing mess if it catches me at the right moment, It's such a gorgeous song.

Also two of my friends made it their first dance when they got married.
