I don't think there [b] were 200 decent songs recorded in the 90s. Or even the 80s, 90s and 00s combined...[/b]
System of a Down came along and just blew stuff away as far as song writing,drumming, and dual vocalists were concerned. Haven't heard a bad song from them.
U2 wrote the song "One".
R.E.M. did "Losing my religon"
Do you want more?...

I don't care if I ever hear those songs again in my lifetime.
And: I don't care if I never hear those songs again in my lifetime.
The first one has the negative 'don't' and the positive 'ever' in it, while the second one has the negative 'don't' and the negative 'never' in it.
So do both sentences - although ostensibly grammatically opposite in meaning - in fact, mean the same thing, somehow?

The RHCPeppers always seem to use tasty (rather than show-offy guitar leads)
I used to play bass in a metal band that covered 'Enter Sandman". Boy was that stuff fun to play...
There was a lot of crap in th 90's but music was deversifying so much.
I love the Youth Groups version of 'Forever Young". I think it was origonally a Bob Dylan song. Awesome! I had to write the lyrics and chords to that one...
