There seems to be a massive gap of musical talent in the 90s for me. There was a lot of bands/artists that came out with a hit single, and people would say, "They're the next best thing!" but then the said band/artist fail to function under the pressure, and collapse never to be heard of again. Belly's psychedelic "Feed the Tree" was a good example. The band came out with one hit, and then vanished off the face of the musical world, never to be heard of again. (I still don't know what the hell 'Feed the Tree' is about.)
