Hello Stackers!
It's Thursday so that means it's Throwback Thursday Time!
Throwback Thursday is changing, (or rather, I'm trialling something out).
I'm going to give you a bunch of clues and I want you to guess the year and comment a song from that year. Highest ranked correct answer (by "top") gets the bounty. Entries close prior to "Feel Good Friday" Post.
🚨A guess without a correct song doesn't win, both your guess and the song must be from the correct year.🚨
Here we go!
- Sinéad O'Connor's "Nothing Compares 2 U" This worldwide success was one of the best-selling singles of the year, topping the charts in many countries.
- MTV's Unplugged The first broadcast of this cable television show featured the British band Squeeze.
- The Rolling Stones' Japan tour The band played 10 concerts at Tokyo's Korakuen Dome, marking their first ever tour of Japan.
- The Righteous Brothers' "Unchained Melody" This song re-entered the Top 40 nearly 25 years after its release, thanks to the movie Ghost.
- M.C. Hammer's "U Can't Touch This" This song revitalized the dance scene.
- Stevie Ray Vaughan's death The blues guitar master died in a helicopter crash after a concert in East Troy, Wisconsin.
- Curtis Mayfield's paralysis The soul singer/songwriter was paralyzed from the neck down after being struck by a falling lighting rig at a Brooklyn, NY outdoor concert.
- Gloria Estefan's tour bus crash The singer was seriously injured in a tour bus crash.

Thunderstruck/1990Thunderstruck/1990
view on youtu.beWe have a winner. As listed by "top" congratulations, thanks for playing, see you next week!
🤘🤘 absolute banger.
Thank you so much! As soon as I found that Thunderstruck was released in 1990, I was sure, this is a winner. Can you think of any other song to compete against it?
Bon Jovi blaze of glory was one of my favourites of that time frame. But you had the zaprank as voted by others aswell. And thunderstruck is such a great track.
Yes. Only Blaze of Glory can. I agree.
Huge song. And ingot a lot of time for Wilson Phillips.
Big energy! Let's go!
Classic 80s sound. But it was indeed released in the correct year. Very sneaky submission to throw your opponents off.
She really does have such an incredible voice.
Such a fun track. Good choice.
This might be the best Bon Jovi song ever. In my opinion. Either that or wanted (dead or alive). It's a tough call to make.
Great a-ha song. Great choice.
This song changed my life. I have been a fan of everything TOOL has done since. Along with Maynard's other projects, A Perfect Circle, and Puscifer. How this became a huge radio hit, is kind of mind blowing.
view on www.youtube.comTool are just awesome. Such incredibly clever musicians. Can anyone agree what time signature schizm is actually in? 🤣🤣
I agree. I don't know what the time signature is but it rocks.. there new music is even crazier.
Jane's Addiction - Been Caught Stealing
view on www.youtube.comJanes addiction is a fantastic submission. Great choice.
As an aside I'm constantly singing Unchained melody to myself to this day, and while it's hard to not go with a song from AiC Facelift for the year gonna have to drop this.
view on youtu.beSlayer!!!! 🤘🤘🤘🤘 Very good.
"U Can't Touch This" is a song performed by MC Hammer, released in January 1990 as the lead single from his album Please Hammer Don't Hurt 'Em and is considered MC Hammer's signature song.
