Discussion about this date:
I was trying to figure out when a childhood memory happened. Now I know that it was late 1998, as the music videos for Cher's song "Believe" and Madonna's song "Frozen" were always played in the early morning. Then, after that, the TV station would switch to its regular daytime schedule and air cartoons such as Recess. Now that I think of it, TV stations don't really "shut down" for the night anymore. During the 1990s, they'd often start showing music videos or shopping channel stuff after midnight.

The summer is long gone. Temperatures have become much cooler, and the evenings are beginning to get darker. There is a fresh, earthy scent in the air, and fallen leaves have carpeted driveways, lawns, pathways, and sidewalks.

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. In fashion, bright and metallic colors are all the rage—a big change from the darker "grunge" colors of the early 1990s. Women are wearing maxi skirts, bell bottoms, knee boots, crop tops, tube tops, slip dresses, maxi coats, and platform shoes. Meanwhile, a lot of men have ditched their grunge and skater clothes in favor of a "dress casual" look. They are also beginning to cut their hair shorter.
It's 1998, so radio stations are being dominated by the likes of Brandy, Monica, Aerosmith, R. Kelly, K-Ci & JoJo, Céline Dion, All Saints, Steps and Will Smith.
