Take me back to February 19, 1995

Let's take a walk down memory lane.

The date is February 19, 1995, and it's a Sunday. Babies who are born today will have the star sign Pisces. People are currently enjoying their weekend. However, because it's a Sunday, some are dreading the week ahead.

Valentine's Day of 1995 has just passed. In America, the song "Creep" by TLC is at the top of the singles charts, while "Think Twice" by Celine Dion is the number-one song in the UK. Bill Clinton is the President of the United States, and the movie Billy Madison is at the top of the box office.

John Major is the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom. On television, people are watching popular shows such as "Home Improvement", "Martin", "Star Trek: Deep Space Nine", and "Party of Five". A new form of communication called "text messaging" is starting to become more widespread. However, it can only be done if both the sender and the receiver are on the same cell network.

Meanwhile, a global system called "the Internet" is also starting to take off. Each day, more and more people are learning how to send emails and browse "websites" on the World Wide Web by connecting their IBM computers to noisy dial-up modems. In fashion, "grunge" clothing has fallen out of favor, and women are beginning to wear form-fitting outfits such as slip dresses and pencil skirts. Movies such as Clueless and The Craft have popularized the "sexy schoolgirl" look. In Europe, a war is continuing to rage in Bosnia and Herzegovina.

The CD is quickly becoming the dominant format for music, and people are buying portable players such as the "Discman". Consequently, sales of cassette tapes are continuing to decline. It's 1995, so radio stations are being dominated by the likes of Celine Dion, Everything but the Girl, Coolio, Oasis, Michael Jackson, Boyzone, Madonna, Montell Jordan, TLC and Mariah Carey. Former football player O.J. Simpson is currently being tried for the murder of his ex-wife and her friend.

Actress Pamela Anderson and Mötley Crüe drummer Tommy Lee have just been married after knowing each other for only four days. If you were to travel back to this day, notable figures such as Eazy E, Selena, Bob Ross, and Jerry Garcia would all still be alive. People are playing video games such as "Myst", "FIFA Soccer 95", "Warcraft: Orcs & Humans", and "Wario's Woods".

Children and teenagers are watching television shows such as "Rugrats", "The Nanny", "Sister, Sister", and "The Secret World of Alex Mack". Children are playing with toys such as Yo-yo, Nerf Blaster, Power Rangers figures, and Fisher-Price Great Adventures Castle.
