Oh, this is jolly good fun

I remember vividly my older brother and I having the old boombox going full blast on the latest mid-ninties pop music, out in the yard while we were swinging on the swingset. We did this so much, I have a few songs and artists permanently etched in my memory. I can remember these particular bands/songs the most (most of these make me cringe, though, when I look back):

Matchbox 20 ("Push" in particular)
Barenaked Ladies
Ja Rule (especially the album Venni Vetti Vecci)
Eiffel 65 (remember-...I'm blue dabade dabadi..) Ah that was just horrid when I think about it
Third Eye Blind
Korn
Kid Rock ("Only God Knows Why")
Smashmouth
Ludacris
Eminem (I wan't allowed to listen to him but I still did. I especially remember hearing "Sing for the Moment" a lot on the radio)

A far as parental influences, I clearly remember:
from mom: Eagles, Prince, Journey, Johnny Cash
from dad: Johnny Paycheck, Willie & Waylon, Creedence Clearwater Revival
