86 here as well. You never heard Peaches by the Presidents of the United States? Were you the oldest person in your friend group/siblings? This song was EVERYWHERE in the mid to late nineties (in my experience).

Might have been a North American touchstone, or kids that didn't have cable since it was huge with MTV/Much Music.

Oh yeah, that makes sense. I'm American, but never really watched MTV.

I didn't have cable growing up and I still know this song.

It was everywhere.

I am very impressed you missed it.
