I wisht I lived in the 90's. Well I did, but only for 3 years of it. I wish I grew up then, when rock bands I like to listen to today were popular.
Wow that's weird! I am really not that much older than you, I was born in January 1990, so technically we were born in the same decade, but I can remember most of the 90s whereas you probably at best have one memory of 1999. Does watching videos from the 90s feel surreal/like another world to you? Cuz I remember, it really wasn't that different.

People who miss the 90's are more likely adults who are in their 30's and 20's who were kids and teens in the 90's. I miss old school nickelodeon and old school Disney and the kid shows were great and the toys were better, I remember the days where gas prices were low and costs were cheaper then. Do I miss the 90's? Maybe.
Plus music these days seem to suck I can't stand it. But that doesn't mean I can't go online and listen to music from the 90's or can't watch old TV shows from the 90's thanks to netflix and internet. Plus you can listen to the radio station that plays music from 12-22 years ago. I think it's memories people have that makes them feel they miss the 90's.

I guess that I'm the exception here. I'm more nostalgic about the 80s. I couldn't wait to get out of high school so I could ignore all the trends of the 90s. _________________ The darling, unworldly Mick Avory with hands like shovels, who wouldn't dare choose to hurt a soul: I'm the cuddly, adorable Kink.

Oh, what about the days when it cost £2/hr to surf the web at the library. When yahoo and netscape was bread and butter. these days it doesn't take a week be fully set up with a PC. You don't get the pleasure of shouting "is anyone expecting a phonecall? I'm going on the internet for an hour" It sounds so prehistoric yet unbelievably recent - and it made small things so exciting.
I'm glad to have been active in a time when the music industry actually made money and you didn't need to win a televised singing competition to get signed - instead just look pretty and play in the right place at the right time (poor spelling of London, Fri/Sat). what happened smoking on the train?!! terminator 2 for the first time round anyone?

Actually, I haven't been exposed to the bands popular in the 90s. I barely even know the song "Smells Like Teen Spirit".
