It's Christmas Eve of 1999. The big day is fast approaching and the excitement is building. Department stores are filed with people trying to do some last-minute shopping. In America, the song "Smooth" by Santana & Rob Thomas is at the top of the singles charts, while "The Millennium Prayer" by Cliff Richard is the number-one song in the UK. Bill Clinton is the President of the United States, and the movie Any Given Sunday is at the top of the box office.
Tony Blair is the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom. 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.

The Nokia 3210 is currently one of the most popular cellphones on the market.
Pokemon has become one of the most popular franchises in the world, as trading cards, toys and handheld games gross over one billion dollars.
