\"\"<\/a>Between 1989, my sophomore year of high school, and 1995, my fourth year of college, I put together a nearly 20 volume collection of mix tapes, containing my favorite songs that I had gathered either from the radio, a cassette tape, or (eventually) CD. I thought it would be a fun exercise to look back at all 20 volumes and which of my \u201cfavorite\u201d songs I still listen to today.<\/p>\n

Volume 9 places us squarely in the early months of 1993, overlapping with the second semester of my freshman year of college. \u00a0The hip hop and pop are rounded out with some alternative and what passes for hair metal in the post-grunge era.<\/p>\n
