Throwback Thursday: 1995 (3 Weeks #1)

No songs spent 3 weeks at #1 in 1996!

This is a CLASSIC. So sinister and so catchy. I can only imagine what it was like for people that knew the Stevie Wonder song before they heard this.

You know what? I'm going to do it. You can't listen to Gangsta's Paradise and NOT listen to Amish Paradise. So get ready for a two-fer. :)


Coolio featuring L.V. - Gangsta's Paradise (9/9-9/23)


"Weird"Al Yankovic - Amish Paradise (peaked at #53)
