Meg Ryan and Tom Hanks had us enthralled with their performances in Sleepless In Seattle and Whitney Houston was flying high with I Will Always Love You.
But we want your memories of what was happening closer to home.
We have unearthed 10 South Tyneside photos from 1993 and they cover everything from a school band to a huge crowd turning out to watch a well-known pop group.
Take a look and tell us more about these nostalgic scenes from an era gone by.
