I do care what people think, but we don't need to here some of the curse words that people use to describe what they think...Keep yourcomments to the infantile group you hang with...
Man... this CD might be a representative of 1992's best music... but was the music of 1992 that good in the first place? No.
Sure, this music sucks now, but in 1992, this was the popular music. I remember hearing all the songs on the CD. It is a pretty accurate record of the music of 1992.
Jon Secada might have been the best song on this Review. This covers alot of different sounds.
Jon secada...uh no.
kris kross should have never rapped, and tevin campbell, what ever happened to him. genesis, the best song was against all odds....you should have put that.
It's miserable to think that this steaming collection of crud was once popular. Was John Secada really popular? No, really, was he? I swear he served me my Big Mac and fries the other day. It seems that most to all of Billboard's "Greatest Hits" are in fact cheesy pop crap not worth giving a second listen to. Honestly there are some songs on this CD I'd never even heard of. And with the state of popular music today, as watered down and sugar coated as ever, don't expect anything promising out of Billboard's future collections. Ballads ballads ballads! We made this crap popular, that is something to bear in mind. Not all of us mind you. I didn't. The thought of owning a Right Said Fred CD makes me physically ill. And I know there are a lot of others who feel the same way. But the majority felt otherwise, which is why Billboard was stuck releasing this, thing. I think it was John F. Kennedy that said, "Eat Me Kriss Kross! I'm Pro-Nirvana!" Or at least I think it was JFK. It was dark and foggy and I was drunk, not to mention the fact that he's been dead for 37 years. The only other thing that's bothering me is, why can't I get "I'm Too Sexy." out of my head now? I need help.
How could you do a best of '92 album without taking note of the full scope of how eclectic the music charts truly where? 1992 marked the biggest years in the history of Guns 'n' Roses, Hammer, Michael Jackson, U2, Metallica (who co-headed the summer's biggest tour with G'N'R that year), and a number of up-and-coming 'alternative' artists such as the Red Hot Chili Peppers, Jane's Addiction, and the Spin Doctors. What about Positive K's hit, "I Got A Man," House Of Pain's "Jump Around," or a track by Arrested Development? Let's think the effort through a little better next time...
Ah hello? Did they take the worst songs from 1992 and put them on a CD so nobody would buy them? They need to pull this one off the shelf right now, and think a little harder as to if they want to put another one of these Billboard greatest hits CD again.
Billboard must have counted wrong. This
is the BEST of 1992? Save your money.
Rent a movie.
this is definitely one of the worst cd's i have
ever heard. baby got back and jump are both good songs
but everything else is total crap. if you want baby
got back, get sir mixalots cd
"mack daddy", if
you want "jump" get "the best of ruffhouse records.
if you want one of the other songs, kill yourself!
See above.
<EOM>
Atlantic Star
Tevin Campbell
Jon Secada
Joe Public
WTF?
Strange grouping of hits here, I think that some of the tunes are alright, but you know, the others are right-you have to have Pearl Jam or Nirvana or someone like that if you are gonna do the big hits from c.late '91-96 or so, esp to '94. Billboard obviously couldn't get the rights.
HELLO??? THE YEAR OF GRUNGE AND THEY DON'T EVEN INCLUDE ONE PEARL JAM OR STP SONG? I REMEMBER 92 WELL AND JOE PUBLIC ISN'T ONE OF THE GUYS
There are only two songa on it that I wouldn't turn off the radio if they were playing. Yeah, I know, they were popular, but billions of flies eat
Has anyone heard any good songs from any of these artists lately. I sell music for a living and I can tell you NO. Billboard does a great job of showing no bias when compiling top hits for each year. Its just too bad that music consumers caused these songs to be the "TOP" hits of 1992. I just hope the 1993 selection is better. Anyway, Thanks to Billboard for being unobjective!
Yes kids it's THE ACE again, you may have read some of my previous reviews, well here's another. This cd sucks, it is the worst compilation of varied wave lengths and noise, also known as music to some, that I have ever seen. Yea we listened to some of this stuff way back then, but we listened to it cause there wasn't nothin else to listen to, bottom line, if you get this for free I'd still suggest that you raise hell to whoever's givin it to you and try to convince them that they're rippin you off, cause they are. That's all for now, see ya later folks, this is THE ACE, signing off.
and i'll say it again: The billboard didn't do this - the buyers of music in 1992 did.
yes it's funny to see the stuff we were buying back then, but that's the way it is.
Buy this album if 1) if you want to buy a really expensive frisbee or 2) you want to laugh really hard at how poor these songs are and how dumb billboard is. I can't wait to see what crap they put on the 1993 album. Thank you billboard for wasting our time.
I'M SURE THERE WERE A LOT BETTER SONGS FROM '92 THAT DIDN'T HAPPEN TO BE ONE OF THE TOP 10.
that "life is a highway" song is by Tom Cochrane
Ummm... Hello? How about Nirvana? Pearl Jam? Metallica? Guns N' Roses? Arrested Development? En Vogue? How about that Life is A Highway song? That was pretty good. That Joe Public song was AWFUL. What a disappointment.
this is sic, i never cared much for anything billboard put out. the paper inside the cd aint worth this stuff
These songs were popular for what....5 sec. during the nineties who would want to remember how stupid they were for listening to them?????? And only a few songs were relatively popular the rest i've never heard of! A SAD SAD DAY FOR THE BILLBOARD LIST!!!!
This must be a joke, what a sad compilation of music. No real person with any ear for music would listen to this. I thought we all had more faith in Billboard, maybe they should rethink their place in music.
Man, does this CD rock!!! If you really want to hear the heart of the music scene in '92 BUY THIS DISC!!! It's packed full of unbelievably talented musicians playing extremely complex pieces. (And I'm not just saying that because I get 1% of all sales, either.)
I thought that this album was a joke for a second. Where's Pearl Jam, Nirvana, and the other bands that changed music during the 90's. Mr. Big? You have to be joking. This album just proves how stupid "popular music" was in the 90's.
Not to be dropping names (so I won't); but by 1992, the "pop music scene" could best be described as the "cool dude" in American Graffitti said: "There ain't been any GOOD music since Buddy Holly died."
Did these people forget that 92 was the breaking year of the Northwest rock explosion, or did they just leave that out to make room for this crap? When I think of '92, I don't think of Mr. Big or Right Said Fred, I think of Smells Like freakin' Teen Spirit and Ritual de lo Habitual (which technically was '91) and Badmotorfinger. Eh, who cares? Nobody with any real musical taste would pick up this lame compilation now. Maybe in a few years when it becomes retro-chic...
