Good times bad times give me some of that.

Remember the Windows 95 installation CD and that cool video included on the disk?

The music video was by Edie Brickell performing Good Times: With Ambient Sound and Alain Duplantier, Brian Cresto, Robin Burchill (C) 1994 Geffen Records.  Life would not be fun without the bad times – it may sound strange at first, but it’s so true! Enjoy!

    This was the first. whatsoever, video I experienced on a computer screen – after installing the MS Win95 for the 1st time, onto a Pentium 33 machine for the kids, back in the mid 90´s.

    As for most comments on this page, it awakes memories of when the kids were smaller, when you still were considered a natural parent authority in their eyes, – and, of course, reinstallations of Win95.
    Those were the times…

    Nowadays, the kids now more about the computers, SSD-disks, motherboards etc, and they help their father when needed.
    And about the parent “authority” ?
    Well, authority, smauthority…

    They still love their father – you now, with that kind of forgiving love, realizing that, the old fart can´t do so much better, but at least he can explain some analog techniques – whenever that is needed…

    And Edie Brickells “Good Times, Bad Times” will live forever.

    Yesterday, on our way home from the office, my husband asked me about this song, “who sang that song? do you remember?”….I was just at elementary school when I heard that song, I love it so much, and I said to my husband “I don’t know the singer, I just love the song…he..he..sorry, love”….and now I found who’s the singer, and when I watch this video this morning, I moved my body, enjoy this song so much…and my boss asked me “are you okay?”…….oh sir, this is my good, good, good time!!!!!

    This song/video was worth reformating my old computer for! The song, the video, reminded me of those hot spontaneous rains we used to enjoy getting wet by, now i have it downloaded on my ipod!

    Thanks Edie!

    I’ve been looking for this song since… well, when Windows 95 was released. This DEFINITELY brings back memories. I thought I was the only person in the world that knew about this video.
