Memory unlocked...I too was 17 in January 1991. Best slow dance/make out song at the Winter Ball that month. The faculty attending to supervise the dance were not happy, but it was a hired DJ, so not much they could do. Heather O'Neill, you were a wonderful date.
The pizza place where I worked still only had the kind of jukebox with 45 record singles, and our 10-times-a-night track was "Hanging Tough" by New Kids On The Block... I'd have traded that for any Madonna song.
Ha! I've also been the "victim" of a limited selection of music at my old retail jobs, but never had to deal with a "sexy" song, thank goodness. I did watch "Pulp Fiction" with my in-laws just after it came out, though - completely whiffed on the whole "gimp" thing (so embarrassing).
I had a similar experience, watching Clerks for the first time with family. :) Happy New Year to you, I always look forward to your posts and your comments!
