After finally finishing my exhausting survey of 1967 (it took me almost 4 months), the year 1992 seems like a breeze. There are the usual 90s suspects: Michael Jackson, MC Hammer, Barenaked Ladies, and Metallica.

But my pick for the most interesting and lasting song from this week's show is Lyle Lovett's [left] "You've Been So Good." It's the bluesy tale of a father, or perhaps uncle, who sees a young person on the edge of going down a road of bad choices. Also featured is the Metallica classic, about an even younger person's danger's in the night.

This was the year that Eric Clapton unplugged, and finally won a grammy, selling 10 million CDs along the way, and Leonard Cohen released his most consistent CD, having dropped his voice about an octave and a half.
