The Gay Nineties is an American nostalgic term referring to the decade of the 1890s. It is known in the United Kingdom as the Naughty Nineties, and refers there to the decade of supposedly decadent art by Aubrey Beardsley, the witty plays and trial of Oscar Wilde, society scandals and the beginning of the suffragette movement.
Despite the term, the U.S. had little prosperity throughout most of the decade. An economic crisis developed in the beginning of the decade because of high tariffs and the introduction of low-valued silver coinage to counter growing inflation. The economic crisis greatly worsened when the Panic of 1893 set off a widespread economic depression in the United States that lasted until 1896.
Etymology
The term Gay Nineties itself began to be used in the 1920s in the United States and is believed to have been created by the artist Richard V. Culter, who first released a series of drawings in Life magazine entitled "the Gay Nineties" and later published a book of drawings with the same name. The phrase has nothing to do with the term gay to refer to homosexuality, although a well-known gay bar in Minneapolis, Minnesota uses the phrase as its name.
QUIEN DICE (Ana Torroja) No me pidas tanto No rompas el encanto Si te diera la vida sin mas Se apagaría el gas No enseñes tus cartas Yo guardo mas de un as Subo la apuesta Si jugamos con mis reglas Niño, ¿Por qué dices que me quieres? No es bueno ser tan impaciente Ni perder la cabeza por una promesa Di quien dice que lo nuestro sea amor Quien? Que un beso deja siempre buen sabor Quien? Quiere soportar ser fiel y tu si has soportado Di quien dice que lo nuestro sea amor Quien? Que cada beso sabe algo mejor Quien? Que no voy a salir por pies y tu salir mal parado No... no... Tujao la dorada No me tienta nada Si te gustan mis alas No te empeñes en cortarlas Niño, ¿Por qué dices que me quieres? No es bueno ser tan impaciente Ni perder la cabeza por una promesa Di quien dice que lo nuestro sea amor Quien? Que un beso deja siempre buen sabor Quien? Quiere soportar ser fiel y tu si has soportado Di quien dice que lo nuestro sea amor Quien? Que cada beso sabe algo mejor Quien? Que no voy a salir por pies y tu salir mal parado (No No me regales anillos) (No me van los compromisos) (Lo mio es vivir siempre asi, con el alma en vilo) Di quien dice que lo nuestro sea amor Quien? Que un beso deja siempre buen sabor Quien? Quiere soportar ser fiel y tu si has soportado Di quien dice que lo nuestro sea amor Quien? Que cada beso sabe algo mejor
