- (FBE) Today, we're going to see how well you know music from the '90s.
- (gasping) I'm so ready!
- I am very bad at these Do You Know Its.
- Ooh, I was not quite alive in the '90s, so this might be a little rough.
- I was born in 2000, so that's all before me.
I don't know jack.
- Dude, I've done that four times,
so I'm pretty much an expert at this point.
I think I'm gonna get at least maybe one,
based on my past results.
- I'll probably get one or two songs, but we'll see, we'll see.
- Mental state of being, I'm ready.
Let's do it.

That's all I know. I know that part.
- (FBE) Do you know this song?
- Uh, I have no idea.
- No!
- I don't know.
I'm disappointed in myself.
- This is very iconic and I can't remember it.
- "Say It Ain't So" by possibly Weezer?
- I don't know the title for sure, but I want to say
"Say It Ain't So" by Blink 182.
- I don't know the name of the song, but I think it's by Blink 182.
- "All the Small Things" by, uh, Blink 182.
- (FBE) This is "All the Small Things" by Blink 182.

- I like it.
It sounds like a little girl group.
- (FBE) So do you know this one? - I don't.
- I don't know it.
- I have absolutely no clue what that was.
- I feel like if it was the Spice Girls,
it would be a more well-known song.
- (FBE) This is "Candy" by Mandy Moore.
- It's Mandy Moore?
She was Rapunzel in Tangled.
- I think she plays that girl in Tangled, right?
- Mandy Moore is a name that I know, but I can't think of who that is
or what she looks like.
- (FBE) You might recognize Mandy Moore from the show This Is Us
or as the voice of Rapunzel in Tangled.
Here is what she looked like in the '90s.
- This is like what I picture every '90s girl to look like.
- She looks so different in the '90s.
She's got the Rachel haircut.
- She was blond?
No, her roots are dark.
She's not a natural blond.
- She looks like every B-list celebrity from the '90s!
She's got the blond haircut down to her shoulders.
It's very Sarah Michelle Gellar of her.
I guess it makes sense.
She had to do something before being locked in a tower.

- I think it's called "Waterfalls," and I have no idea who it's by.
- TLC, "Waterfalls."
- "Waterfalls" by TLC.
- It's "Waterfalls" by TLC.
- (FBE) So this is "Waterfalls" by TLC.
- "TLC"?
Is that like a TV station?
- I've heard that song so many times for me to not know it.
It makes me kind of sad.
- (FBE) So The Voice's Cee Lo Green sang backup on the song.
He happened to be in the studio and knew the girls
and was happy to do it.
He had no idea how big of a hit the song would be.
- Cee Lo Green was in there?
Cee Lo Green was a thing in the '90s?
- I didn't know he was a name back then.
- I didn't hear Cee Lo in there!
Lord-- good for him.

- (FBE) Do you know it? - I feel like I should, but I don't.
- I don't know it.
- Nope!
- Uh, no.
- I really don't know.
- (FBE) So this song was "Man in the Box" by Alice in Chains.
- I've never heard of any of that.
- I know Alice in Chains.
I actually knew because my dad listens to them.
- I knew those words.
I knew all six of them-- wait.
I knew all seven of those words!
- If it came up on shuffle, I would definitely skip it,
but it would still be saved in my library.
♪ (quirky interlude) ♪
- ♪ If you're horny... ♪ - (giggling)
I know this song.
- ♪ ...my pony ♪
- Yep, "My Pony." Yep, yep, yep. I know this one.
- I want to know who made the background noises for that,
who is just acting like... (deep croak).
- It's like someone accidentally burped in the studio
and they're like, "No! That's good! Use that! Use that!"
- ♪ ...my pony ♪
♪ My saddle's waiting ♪
- This is a super song.
- And they play this in Magic Mike and...
(timidly) I've watched Magic Mike more than appropriate.
- (FBE) And do you know it? - No idea.
- Nah.
- No!
- I know it's "Pony."
I don't know who it's by, though.
- It's "Pony."
I forget who does it, though.
- "Pony" by Ginuwine.
- "Pony" by Ginuwine?
- (FBE) This is "Pony" by Ginuwine. - By Ginuwine?
Yeah, I would've never guessed that.
- It's a good song.
It is a perfect '90s baby making song.
- I've only ever heard it in correlation to Magic Mike,
AKA, the most iconic movie of our generation.

♪ I can't change, I can't change ♪
♪ But I'm here in... ♪ - The background sounds really familiar.
♪ Duh duh duh... ♪
- (singing along) ♪ But I'm a million different people ♪
(laughing)
- This song gives me such a good feeling.
- Was the music sampled for a Coldplay song?
- ♪ No, no, no, no ♪
- Is this what '90s alternative sounded like?
- (FBE) And do you know it? - Mm-mm, no idea.
- Uh, no, I don't.
- No idea.
- No, I know I've heard it before.
- I think the song is called "Bitter Sweet Symphony."
I don't know the artist.
- "Bitter Sweet Symphony" by Verve.
- (FBE) So this is "Bitter Sweet Symphony" by The Verve.
- "The Verve"?
That seems appropriate for an alternative band.
- I've never heard of that word, but that's cool.
I like it. "Verve."
- (FBE) So The Verve sampled the song from an orchestra recording
of a Rolling Stones song.
They agreed to split the royalties 50/50,
however, The Rolling Stones manager heard "Bitter Sweet Symphony"
and also wanted a split of the profits.
The Verve now makes no money off of the song.
- That's sort of messed up.
- Yeah, well, you know... Rolling Stones, Coldplay, same thing.
- Oh my gosh, that's terrible.
And that's a really popular song too.
- Bummer, but I like The Rolling Stones.
(laughing) Glad they got a shout out.

I've got my long blond hair whippin'.

- If you threw me a bone, it went over my head.
- This is one of my mom's favorite songs.
I learned it when I was, like, five.
- It seems too childish.
I could see The Wiggles singing something like that.
- (FBE) And so your last one, do you know it?
- I do not.
- I don't know it.
- No idea.
- No.
- I don't know who it could be,
but the title is probably "Do Wop" or something.
- Hanson, "MMMbop."
- "MMMbop" by Hanson.
- (FBE) This is "MMMbop" by Hanson.
- "MMMbop"? (giggling)
Why would you name a song that?
- Oh, by Hanson?
It's not a chick?
They're those three little boys with the long blond hair?
They probably surf and have seashell necklaces.
- (FBE) So the song was so crazy catchy that it was everywhere,
even around the world.
It reached number one in the charts in 27 countries,
including the US, the United Kingdom, Germany, Australia, and Mexico.
- That's genuinely impressive...
considering how much I dislike that song.
- I mean, it's really catchy, but that's crazy!
- Go Hanson. What a random band.
I love Hanson!
- What were the '90s?
What were you guys doing in the '90s,
listening to some song called "MMMbop"
and... and... (scoffing) what?!
