Nineties Nugget

We debut a new musical feature today, the Nineties Nugget From The Newsroom.

The segment -- in the tradition of the 80's Escape -- will feature a popular song from the nineties that you don't normally hear on WJDK.

Jay is choosing the songs, although that doesn't necessarily mean they are all favorites of his. So, if you hear "Achy, Breaky Heart", don't assume it's straight from Jay's personal mix tape. Not saying it didn't come from there...just sayin'.

Don't worry, you (most likely) won't be hearing Billy Ray, or Vanilla Ice, or the Spice Girls. There will (most likely) be no "Macarena", or "The Thong Song", or "Rico Suave".

The goal is to simply play a song that was popular when it came out, could pass as a regular song on the 'JDK playlist, and is entertaining to listen to - for you, and us.

We're going to do the segment two days a week: Tuesday at 7:20am, and Thursday at 7:50am.

If you have a suggestion for a song you'd like to hear, send it here.
