Well, come stand a little bit closer
Breathe in and get a bit higher
You'll never know what hit you
When I get to you

Welcome to the new millennium. A good year for country, ballads, and country ballads. Alternative rock is starting to appear more in the pop charts, and the genre will soon come to define the sound of rock for this decade (along with post-grunge, which will come later). Latin pop and rock is also growing in popularity, with artists like Ricky Martin, Enrique Iglesias, and the mainstream resurgence of Carlos Santana. This sound would also have a lot of influence over pop and R&B songs by non-Latin artists. Not coincidentally, this is also the year the Latin Grammy Awards was created. These genres do have there distinct sounds and characteristics, but a lot of American music publications at the time used the labels to describe "any pop or rock song in Spanish". I don't think I could do the nuances of this topic justice, so for more of that I'd recommend reading Rock the Nation: Latin/o Identities and the Latin Rock Diaspora by Roberto Avant-Mier.
2000 is also notable for being the year Metallica sued Napster. This suit would later be followed by A&M Records, Inc. v. Napster, Inc., in which Napster was sued by A&M Records and 18 record companies and members of the Recording Industry Association of America. But for most of the year, Metallica (specifically the band's drummer, Lars Ulrich) was the prominent example of artists fighting against music piracy. This is important to bring up, because issues surrounding the cost of music will continue to shape the record industry for the following decades. But more importantly, it gives me an excuse to share this anti-Napster PSA Metallica made for MTV. You're welcome.
Talking the 90s might be a lengthy way to explain in some segments why I chose these records.
While grunge was getting some attention, there were underground music going on like death metal, black metal, techno, electronic music, etc.

I listened to the Punch Up the Jam episode covering “I Want You” by Savage Garden (absolute chaos in the best way! Chris and Miel Bredouw were so good as co-hosts) and I was pleasantly surprised to hear how nicely it mixes with “My Boba Manifesto” on rave.dj.
Hey sweetie 😍 How about a moodboard for Tommy and his s/o on a vacation?
“I wanna stand with you on a mountain. I wanna bathe with you in the sea. I wanna lay like this forever, until the sky fall down on me.” — Savage Garden “Truly Madly Deeply”
Isa, it’s raining where I live, and it's reflected in my. Modern!Tommy and the Photographer!Reader in my head on a nice vacation to the coast of Ireland where he's rented them a lighthouse to stay at. He's been promising them time alone, no work, no phone calls just them and some books, long walks on the beach with her camera.
You can request a moodboard, playlist, and a blurb that is couple related till March 18, in honor of what would have been my parent's 44th Wedding Anniversary.
“One time as a way to survive
I decided to be king
but the crown dug into my skin
and that gold turned out to be tin
poison seeping into my brain
until the only thing to remain
is the last bit of innocence
I hope I can save it.”
Darren Hayes, proving time and time again that he always delivers.
Darren Hayes at the “Frosted Tips with Lance Bass”podcast on September 17, 2023.
“Truly Madly, Deeply . . . excited about this episode for so many reasons!
Plus, he was in one of the biggest bands of the 90s, reaching international fame with huge hits like "I Knew I Loved You" and "Truly Madly Deeply," but behind the scenes, all was not what it seemed.
Darren Hayes, former frontman of Savage Garden, opens up about coming to terms with his sexuality, coping with depression, and the real reason behind the band's bitter split. It's a hopeful story of overcoming adversity and reclaiming the narrative! “
