Take me back to June 25th, 1999!

Let's take a stroll down memory lane!

The date is June 25th, 1999 and it's a Friday. Anyone born today will have the star sign Cancer. Currently, people have "that Friday feeling" and are looking forward to the weekend.

It's summer, so the temperatures are warmer and the evenings are longer than usual. In America, the song If You Had My Love by Jennifer Lopez is on top of the singles charts. Over in the UK, Bring It All Back by S Club 7 is the number one hit song.

Bill Clinton is currently the President of the United States and the movie Big Daddy is at the top of the Box Office. In the United Kingdom, Tony Blair is the current Prime Minister. Meanwhile, CDs have become the dominant format for music. People are buying CD players and the portable CD players such as the "Discman". As a result, the older cassette tape format is continuing to decline in sales.

In fashion, bright and metallic colors are all the rage. A contrast with the darker "grunge" colors that were popular at the beginning of the 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 sporting a more "dressy casual" look. Shorter hair on men is also becoming more popular. A relatively new form of communication called "text messaging" is continuing to explode in popularity. Although the technology has been around since the mid-1990s, it was only recently that cell providers started to allow users to send SMS messages to people on different networks. It's 1999, so radio stations are being dominated by the likes of Cher, TLC, Monica, Whitney Houston, Britney Spears, Jennifer Lopez, Santana and Ricky Martin.

The Nokia 3210 is currently one of the most popular cell phones on the market. If you were to travel back to this day, notable figures such as John F. Kennedy Jr., Walter Payton, Big Pun and Tom Landry would all be still alive. On TV, people are watching popular shows such as "The X-Files", "Xena: Warrior Princess", "7th Heaven" and "Everybody Loves Raymond".

Meanwhile, gamers are playing titles such as "Resident Evil 2", "Crash Bandicoot: Warped", "The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time" and "Baldur's Gate". Kids and teenagers are watching TV shows such as "Hang Time", "Arthur", "Bear in the Big Blue House" and "Bob the Builder". If you're a kid or a teenager, then you're probably playing with toys such as Screwball Scramble, the PlayStation (PS1), the Pokémon Trading Card Game and Furby.
