This makes me wonder: How many songs are titled "Candyman"? Probably not too many, although i'm only guessing.

This was released in 1992, but the prominent use of gated drums makes it sound as if it could have been released sometime in the Late 1980s, particularly around 1988/1989. I must admit, considering how progressive and influential their debut EP and album were, this song is a huge disappointment. "That Ain't Bad" was responsible for alternative-rock emerging in the mainstream here in Australia. This, on the other-hand, is just a big-budgeted, repetitive mess. I'm not surprised that it only peaked at #38 on the ARIA Chart and was in essence, a complete flop. This makes me wonder: How many songs are titled "Candyman"? Besides that Ratcat song I can only think of two others:

I couldn't believe when I found this was released in 2004, imo it sounds very 2010s.

This song from 1978 in my opinion is ahead of its time. The mix of soft pop with both synth and hard rock makes it sound much more like a song from the 80's.

"Fucken Awesome" was released in 2004 and reached a peak of #30 here in Australia. IMO, this is the only post-grunge song released post-2001 that stylistically has more in common with the '90s than it does with the 2000s. It easily could have been released in the Mid-Late '90s.

This song was released in 2012 but it sounds like it could've been released in 2014-2015.

This song is from 1988. But do you think it sounds a few years behind its time? If I didn't know the release date, I would have probably guessed it was from 1983 or 1984, as it has that classic synthpop sound that was prominent in the first half of the 80's.

This was released in 2009 and was included onto the soundtrack of FIFA 10, but I personally think it could easily have been released sometime in the Late '90s. Fatboy Slim was the producer of this track. I'm not sure what other people's opinions are of this, but I think it's quite comparable to his production efforts from around that period of time. This song is from 1988. But do you think it sounds a few years behind its time? If I didn't know the release date, I would have probably guessed it was from 1983 or 1984, as it has that classic synthpop sound that was prominent in the first half of the 80's. Yeah, I agree actually.

This was on the radio a lot back around the end of 2004. In hindsight, it sounds peculiarly retro for its time. In my opinion, it would have fit much better around the 1990-1991 school year, when MC Hammer was at the height of his fame, profanity wasn’t yet standard in hip hop, late 1960s nostalgia was in full bloom, and several pop songs took influences from the music of that period, i.e. “Groove Is in the Heart”. The only thing that dates it past the early ‘90s is the reference to the Cadillac Escalade and Lincoln Navigator SUV’s, which weren’t introduced until the late ‘90s and are mostly associated with the early-mid-2000s.

From 2014, has a shuffle beat of the kind one heard the most in 2008-2010.

Same thing, but it's from 2016.
