1987-90 Veterans Committee: The Newest Nominees Kinda Suit Us, Anyway

Welcome back to another Veterans Committee episode of Hall of Songs!

In this episode, where we take a look at the last four years in our podcast timeline and pick out a couple songs to place on our ballot, we investigate whether the Grateful Dead’s biggest hit is worthy of nomination.

Spoiler: One of our co-hosts loves the Grateful Dead.

We also nominate a couple other big songs from the late 80s and very very very early 90s. Then, we go deeper into things we love about this period in time, musically.

GROUP CHAT: Let’s Talk About The Hall of Songs

We’re in between the 1982 and ’83 episodes, so why not take a moment to look back at EVERYTHING?

Join Tim, Chris, and our special guest, Billboard Deputy Editor Andrew Unterberger (Twitter: @AUgetoffmygold) as they discuss the full Hall of Songs to this point.

We ask: Is this experiment of determining the greatest songs of all-time worthy? What are the biggest surprise Hall of Songs members? What songs, artists, and genres are being snubbed? It’s a fun look at the whole picture before we dive back into nominees.
