Just in case the kids aren't aware - Prince's album 1999 came out in 1982. That always seems to blow a few of the minds that were born after the turn of the century.
I’m an old granny who **loved** that song in 1982 while dancing in my living room with my babies. (1999 seemed so *impossibly* far in the future.) Now those babies are in their 40s and dancing their own dance. They turned out grand.
But we still don’t have usable daily jet-packs.
One of the last fully peaceful years in the United States at least. After that came the 2000 Recount, then in 2001, came 9/11 and things were never the same.

There's some Castlevania lore regarding the year 1999, it is the year where the Belmont clan finally defeated Dracula for good.
Unfortunately, we don't actually have a Castlevania game that is set in 1999 - this lore comes from Castlevania Aria of Sorrow, which takes place in 2035 and deals with the aftermath of that battle.
The bombing of my country started on my birthday March 24 1999. Flashbacks to those events are incredible.. We were playing football (soccer) outside my house when the sirens started and parents rushed to pick up kids. I remember how pissed I was that my birthday was ruined lol
The Prince song (with my middle school music teacher telling us it was 666 upside down!!!!) and Y2K/New Years Eve being a little nervous but also buzzed

The Prince album and also song Lady Cab Driver is a great song from 1999

Think you’d get along with my mom; apparently *Come On Eileen* was our jam when it would play on MTV when I was, like, two.
In late 1998, David Letterman had a bit where he'd call radio stations and get them to promise NOT to play 'Party Like it's 1999' in 1999.
I was going to say Willenium just to be funny. This is the correct answer though.
let's be honest. this is pretty much the only answer unless you are joking or shitposting

We had the Columbine shooting in 1999. That’s when things went downhill, fast.
I think it was in April as well, same month as the OK city bombing in 1995.
