Question
I would like to know the name of the song that is playing when Brandon loses his virginity to a friend who is visiting from Minnesota.  The only lyric I remember is "...hippie chick."  I am thinking it was an early 90s song.  Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

Answer
The song playing in the background when Brandon loses his virginity to his ex-girlfriend Sheryl is "Dreamlike State" by Erasure. It is the B-Side to the single "Star" and you can find a couple of used copies on amazon.com. Otherwise it's fairly hard-to-find.

The song that has "hippy chick" in the lyrics is not the same song. That song is called "Hippychick" and it's by Soho. That song was used in two different scenes. It was used in the same episode as the Erasure song while Brandon, Sheryl, and Dylan are at the club. Later it is used in another episode where Brenda is apartment sitting for her friend Sky. This song is also fairly hard-to-find. It's originally on her CD "Goddess" and amazon.com lists used copies on their site. They also have a couple of used copies of the CD single. You can also find it on a few various artists albums listed on towerrecords.com.

Tower Records also lists one import album of a singles collection by Erasure that features "Dreamlike State".

Both songs are from the late 80s or early 90s.

Hope this answers your question. Thanks for choosing me to answer your question.

Expertise

I have seen all 10 seasons of 90210 and have every episode on tape to locate answers. My expertise is on the first 6 seasons and the characters Brenda and Dylan, but I will attempt to answer any question pertaining to the show. Please no scene/dialogue questions because they are very time-consuming and frustrating. However, I will be happy to clarify misunderstood dialogue due to whispering and such if I'm able to. I will attempt to answer any song question for the original airdates and syndication. NO DVD SONG QUESTIONS PLEASE. Please see my "Life Experience" in my profile for song question updates, it may pertain to your question.

Experience

I have every single episode on tape to find the answers. I watched and taped the show religiously. (All requests for copies of my videotapes/episodes will be declined.)
Update: The song used in "Crunch Time" during David's meth addiction is "Living In A Fantasy" by The Rainbow Band. Many thanks to the fellow 90210 Fan that contacted me with the info when they tracked it down. Also, the song used in "One Wedding and a Funeral" that Dylan & Toni dance to is "Nobody Knows Me" by Lyle Lovett. Same song is used during the scene where Dylan is crying while holding the wedding dress and then kitten. David & Donna's wedding song is "Spend My Life With You" by Eric Benet & Tamia. Same song was Steve & Janet's wedding song.
