Music Playlist

If anyone has musical suggestions from 1992 for our website, please send me a message at snoopy73@atlanticbb.net

These are just some of the songs that I found from 1992. Any other suggestions would be fabulous and so appreciated!!! I'd like to represent everyone's musical tastes. Unfortunately the playlist has a heavy dose of early 90's alternative rock because that's what I was heavily into at that time in my life.

Let me know what else to add....especially if your style was country, rap, etc....THANKS A BUNCH!!!!!
