The theme is high school in the 90's

[tynopik]

This one always stuck with me: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IYerwwTV5qc

Folk Implosion - Natural One certainly was more unique than most

for some reason I always associate it with White Town - Your Woman


a few more
Eve 6 - Here's To The Night - technically 2000, but feels like 90's
Savage Garden - To the Moon and Back
Real McCoy - Another Night
Barenaked Ladies - Old Apartment
Foo Fighters - Everlong
Shawn Colvin - Sunny Came Home

no dave matthews band or counting crows?

You are officially the man. Screeching Weasel? Awesome.
I was mostly into Pennywise, Lagwagon, Bad religion, AFI, Good Ridddance, some others with a few local or underground bands thrown in. Still am mostly, with heavy rotation of rise against, flogging Molly, NOFX, and recenty some A7X.

Ah yes, I saw Pennywise, Lagwagon, AFI, and Good Ridddance live (some of them multiple times) back in those days. So much fun! That first Good Riddance record is still in my rotation; it's very good.
