    I'm not sure whether I need to summarize, but for the record:
    Nena had a No. 1 UK hit with '99 Red Balloons'
    A Californian satnav might tell you you were '99 Miles From L.A.'
    Haydn's Symphony No. 99 is in E flat Major.
    Northender, welcome to the fold - you'll get stick and praise in roughly equal measures and if you're borderline sane it helps!

            Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.
            Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
            Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices..."
